A nice medieval castle that was built to protect the capital, Oslo, against foreign powers. Amazingly the fortress has successfully survived all sieges in the medieval times.
It has later been used as prison. Nowadays it represents a peaceful landmark. In the summer time, its a nice venue for concerts and sometimes it works as a venue for for sports events broadcasted on wide screen projectors.
