King's Wing Fortress

Book a hotel package at Risskov and get away on a self-drive holiday to Norway. Visit Kongsvinger and drive to Kongsvinger Fortress, the town's landmark and well worth an excursion if you're in the area. The impressive fortress has played an important role in Norway's political history since the 17th century. Today, the fortress area is used as an arena for several cultural activities, ranging from concerts and festivals to lectures and exhibitions. From here you also have a lovely view of Kongsvinger and the scenic surroundings with the Glomma River around the fortress.
