The National Treasury of Norway consisted of 50 tonnes of gold worth 240 million kr in 1940 (approximately US$54.5 million in 1940, or US$1.8 billion in 2015.) When the German invasion began, the gold was evacuated from Oslo first overland to Åndalsnes and then by ship to Tromsø. From Tromsø, evacuating Allied forces took the cargo of gold to Britain. The gold arrived safely in Britain despite German ground and air attacks. It was ultimately shipped to North America.

rdfs:comment	Die Auslagerung der norwegischen Goldreserven (norweg. Gulltransporten) bezeichnet eine Episode des Zweiten Weltkriegs in Skandinavien. Der norwegischen Regierung gelang es dabei, die Goldreserven des Landes in einer mehrwöchigen Operation von Oslo nach Tromsø und von dort nach Großbritannien zu bringen und sie so dem Zugriff der deutschen Wehrmacht zu entziehen. Die norwegische Exilregierung war damit die einzige Exilregierung im Zweiten Weltkrieg, die während der gesamten Kriegszeit finanziell unabhängig war. Dementsprechend wurde der Gulltransporten nach dem Krieg zu einem norwegischen Nationalmythos.
