The Blue Stone ( ) is a monument in the city of Bergen , Norway . The stone is long , and made of Brazilian sodalite . It is resting on a stone block , which gives it a characteristic inclination towards the northeast . The entire sculpture is placed on a larger foundation along with a smaller gray square stone sculpture that appears as a cover to an opening at the end of the foundation . It is considered a typical meeting point for the locals . In 2007 the rock was covered with pink plastic as a part of a marketing stunt , and after the 2011 Norway attacks it was used as a memorial site and covered with flowers
