Because of it's location and the axial tilt of the earth. The earth spins around itself in 24hrs, but since Norway is so far north the sun always shines because of Norway actually never being at the dark side of our planet. This only happens in the summer though, at mid-winter the sun doesn't show itself at all in the northern parts of Norway.

It only does that in Midsummer inside the Arctic circle. This is because the north is tilted towards the sun. Obviously in Midwinter the sun does not rise at all.
