Nybyen
Nybyen is a small settlement located on the southern outskirts of Longyearbyen, on the island of Spitsbergen, in the Svalbard archipelago of Norway. The name is Norwegian and translates as ''New Town''. ==History and features==
The settlement was founded in 1946-47 for the miners of "mine 2B" (later named Julenissegruva, "Santa Claus Mine"), one of the area's many coal mines. During the second half of the 20th century the "New Town" became a notable part of Longyearbyen, with the town's only shop for a period, though commercial activity has moved back down the valley. Today its character reflects that of Svalbard's more mixed economy (tourism, research and mining) with two guesthouses (''Guesthouse 102''〔(Guesthouse 102 ) website〕 and ''Spitsbergen Guesthouse''〔(Spitsbergen Guesthouse ) website〕) utilising the former miners' barracks, as well as being home to the Svalbard Art Gallery & Craft Centre,〔(Svalbard Gallery ) webpage〕 and nearby is the ''Huset'' restaurant, club and cinema.〔(Huset restaurant ) website〕 Most students at the University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS) live in six renovated mining barracks in Nybyen.〔(University Centre in Svalbard ) — Accommodation〕
