The historic district of Fredrikstad is probably the region's most loved and appreciated attraction. The well-preserved town was founded in 1567 by none other than the Danish King Frederik II.
There's an open market and several galleries and speciality shops, and if the grandchildren or kids have joined you on this wonderful trip, stop by the 'Old Town Model Railway Station' where the kids can feed the goats right next to the playground.
Frederikstad's Old Town is also a popular place to eat, with many delicious restaurants in the area offering a variety of international and local delicacies.
