Biography

Frederik Nannestad was born at Eidsberg in Østfold, Norway. He was the son of Christopher Jenssen Nannestad (1633–1707) and his third wife, Karen Tønnesdatter Unrow (1652–1716). He father had been a parish priest in the Church of Norway.

Nannestad received his master's degree from the University of Copenhagen in 1718. Initially he remained in the academic environment. In 1732 he became the dean in Aarhus. On 6 August 1732, he married to Martha Elizabeth Jensdatter Wissing (1712–1734). She died two years later and he remained a widower for the rest of his life.

In 1742 he received his doctorate of theology.

On 11 May 1748, he was appointed the bishop of the Diocese of Nidaros. In 1758, after 10 years of work there, was he named the bishop of the Diocese of Oslo following the death of Bishop Niels Dorph.
