Fredrik Riis
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fredrik Riis (1789-1845) was a Norwegian civil servant. He held positions as County Governor in several Norwegian counties: in Sogn og Fjordane from 1831–1832, Sør-Trøndelag 1832–1840 and Akershus 1840–1842. Then, when the county of Oslo, which had until then shared governor with Akershus, got its own governor in 1842, Riis was appointed to this position. This post he held until his death in 1845.
