Easternmost point of Norwegian mainland

CapeEast is the easternomst point of the "west", as it is the end of the western way towards north, bordering to the Russian empire, just 50 km across the fiord. Close to CapeEast (Østkapp in Norwegian) is the small village Kiberg, which often was called "little Moscow" out of the close contacts across the fiord. This was especially in the "pomor trade" period before the socialist union "SSSR" included Russia for 70 years.
