context_section_description: Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany had a statue of Fridtjof  raised in the village of Vangsnes in Vik in the county of Sogn og Fjordane, Norway.  The Statue of Fridtjof (Fridtjof den frøkne) is a landmark which towers 22.5 metres (74 ft) over the hilltop. It stands in a park overlooking the Sognefjord. The statue was sculpted by the German sculptor and art professor Max Unger (1854-1918) and was erected in July 1913. Wilhelm II also ordered in 1890 that a coastal defense ship be named Frithjof after the Norse hero.
