Coordinates: Gulen is a municipality in the county of Sogn og Fjordane, Norway. The Gula Fjord is considered to be the place where Norway's west-coastal Vikings met at the Gulating, a governing body. The area in the Gulafjord called Flolid is now a national historic place, where an open air theater and annual summer play commemorates the Vikings who gathered there 1000 years ago to accept Christianity.
