Exploring Kristianstens Fortress from 1681. 🎧 Immersive spatial audio soundscape. Let’s explore!

Kristianstens Fortress After a major city fire in Trondheim in April 1681, King Christian V ordered the development of a new city and fortification plan. The new city plan introduced an entirely new street network with a central grid layout, defensive structures around the city core, and Kristiansten Fortress. The strategic placement of the fortress on the heights east of the city allowed military forces to control access to Trondheim and support the open defensive lines along the Nidelva River. The fortress was completed in 1684 but was later expanded. In the 1740s, it was given the design it has today. The Great Northern War During Swedish King Charles XII’s campaign against Norway in 1718, Trondheim was besieged by Swedish troops. Kristiansten Fortress was a key reason why the Swedes did not dare to attack the city itself. Instead, they had to cross the Nid River south of the city and established their headquarters 12 km south of Trondheim. World War II During World War II, Kristiansten Fortress was used by the occupying German forces as an execution site. Many Norwegian resistance fighters were arrested and executed at the fortress. Today, the site serves as a memorial to honor those who lost their lives in the struggle for freedom. 🎧 Immerse yourself in the atmosphere with natural walking sounds—best enjoyed with headphones!
