Introducing Fredrikstad
Fredrikstad is home to one of the best-preserved fortress towns in Scandinavia, Gamlebyen with a modern waterfront district just across the water. Once an important trading centre between mainland Europe and western Scandinavia, Fredrikstad also has a cathedral (1880), which contains stained-glass work by Emanuel Vigeland; bizarrely, the steeple contains a lighthouse, which still functions at night.
