#Fredriksten #Fredrikshald
This fortress in Halden was constructed by Denmark-Norway in the 17th century as a replacement for the border fortress at Bohus, which had been lost when the province of Bohuslän was ceded to Sweden by the terms of the Treaty of Roskilde in 1658. The fortress was named after King Fredrik III of Denmark and Norway, and the town of Halden was also originally named after him, having been known as Fredrikshald between 1665 and 1928.
After 1905 the fortress lost all military significance, but it still hosted various units. As of today the Norwegian defense logistics and administrative college are situated by the fortress. The fortress also hosts several museums and art exhibitions. During the summer season, outdoor concerts are arranged with both classic and contemporary music.
#Halden
Named after a small farm Hallen first mentioned in 1629, "Halden", became the city of Frederikshald in 1665, named after Frederick III of Denmark.
Swedish forces unsuccessfully attempted to invade the town six times between 1658 and 1814. As a reference to the town's citizens burning their own houses to prevent them from being taken on 4 July 1716 by the forces of King Charles XII of Sweden, Halden is one of only two cities in Norway's national anthem. In 1718, the Great Northern War ended when Charles XII was shot at the Fredriksten fortress. The fortress had been erected in the 17th century as a replacement for the Bohus Fortress lost at the Treaty of Roskilde in 1658 when Bohuslän was ceded to Sweden. Halden has never been captured by force by an invading army, although it was occupied by German forces in WWII.
About Us:
We are traveling across Norway with caravan Hymer Eriba Troll 530 Rockabilly. Most of our trips are relatively short and start from Fredrikstad in Norway. For those who is limited in time, you might discover what you could see during a two-day or three-day trip in Southern Norway. To get more impressions from an uncommon perspective we are flying over Norway with drone and make short drone films and travel vlogs in 4K.
You are welcome to leave you questions in comment to the video and we will try answer our best!
