Oscarsborg/Norway - 08/08/2015

Since we had a day long traveling the day before, we took our time to explore Oscarsborg.
Oscarsborg is located in the Oslo Fjord controlling a narrow point. A Fortress was but 1844-45. Three cannons, which were constructed by Krupp in Germany, are installed here. They are named Moses, Aron and Josva. Moses first fall into the Fjord when arrived in Norway, which is the reason for the naming...
Although I am not that much into military stuff, the cannons and they way they are constructed were very impressive.
In addition a beautiful nature surrounds the fortress and the view at the Oslo Fjord is brilliant.
