Johannes Wilhelm Christian Steen (22 July 1827, Christiania - 1 April 1906, Voss, Hordaland) was a Norwegian politician, Prime Minister of Norway from 1891 to 1893 and from 1898 to 1902.
He was born in Oslo and grew up in Vesteraalen.[1]
Steen's final administration was responsible for the 1902 Land Sales Act, that limited the buying or leasing of state-owned land to fluent Norwegian speakers, barring the Saami people from the purchase of their traditional hunting and grazing grounds.[2]
