Bergenhus Fortress

Missed the opening hours, so I only got to walk around the grounds - but it was still worth it. The area is clean, well-maintained, and easy to explore. A nice and relaxing walk with plenty of history in the surroundings.

The fortress is located next to the harbour, spread over quite a bit of land, it is very walkable, and a must see for history buffs, allow at least an hour .

Nice fort with a link to history... It does only appear to have seen battle once though ?? Be mindful it does close early at 4 so make sure to get there in good time.its a short trip so can be done as part of a day filled with other visits.

The ancient fortress in Bergen locates near to Bryggen and adjacent to port. It has a small park to spend your time with family.

This historical site is a must-visit, even though it’s quite empty. However, it offers a glimpse into life in the past. There’s a tower you can climb to get a better view, and there are also well-maintained walking pathways. On a positive note, the restrooms are clean.

The castle's history can be traced back to the first half of the 13th century, although foundations of buildings from around the 11th century have also been discovered. It was transformed into a fortress during the 16th century. The Rosenkrantz Tower and Haakon's Hall, which are among the oldest well-preserved structures within the fortress, bear a resemblance to certain medieval buildings found in the United Kingdom. Since I had limited time, I enjoyed admiring the structures only from the exterior.

A stunning 13th century fortress that you can walk around, free of charge. You can go into certain parts of the building for a fee.

A beautiful centuries old fortress that is today a place for ceremony, celebration, and events. It has some very nice gardens, church, and old cannons. A good visit near the cruise terminal.
