Bronze Age remains have been found in the town, attesting to its human presence. Situated close to the Swedish border, 164 km from Oslo, Halden boasts some interesting defensive monuments. The town owes them to its proximity to Sweden, a powerful neighbor with an expansionist streak. Here, you can admire the fortifications and the Fredriksten fortress, built around 1660 in the shape of a star after the French model of the time. The town is home to a number of cutting-edge industries, including submarine cables and pipelines. The surrounding countryside is rich in natural beauty.
