Protecting Bergen's eastern shores since the early 13th Century, this formidable stone fortress is one of the country's oldest Medieval-era military fortifications. The fortress was prominently at the center pf the Battle of Vågen in 1665, which ended in the defeat of the British fleet. Notable structures within the complex include the majestic Haakon's Hall that was used for official functions of the royal family and the formidable Rosenkrantz Tower. The grand hall and the bishop's residence are two of the fortress' main attractions that nestle within its impenetrable walls.
