|The 1952 Winter Olympics were the first to have specifically built residencies for Olympians. The villages were in the areas of Sogn, Ullevål and Ila in [[Oslo]]. They could hold 600, 400 and 200 people respectively. The largest of the three is now the [[Sogn Studentby]], which now houses around 1,500 students. Additional housing was provided by hotels in [[Norefjell]]. |
