Trondheim, although the third largest city in Norway, but compared to the capital Oslo, the port of Bergen and the city of Aurora Tromso is still relatively small.
Christian Stern Fortress, walk over the Old Town Bridge and walk up the hillside to reach the high point of Trondheim overlooking the city. The
fortress was built in the 17th century. The interior of the fortress is only open in the summer. The outdoor park is open all year round. The wall of the fortress is not high. From a distance, there is only a small white house with a modern box. The shape and the French or Italian The castle full of art and sculpture is completely incomparable. There are many cannons around it. It is believed to be a weapon that used to guard the port to prevent enemy invasion.
Norwegian soldiers will now use the cannons here for military exercises, loading and unloading the forts, and visitors can watch their exercises, which is very interesting.
