Fredrikstad Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Amazing Fredrikstad Old Town

Kind of a small old town, but really beautiful. There a lots of amazing buildings, a church, NRK building (as I understood, earlier it was a hospital) and many secret courtyards with flowers and even fountains. This old town is surrounded by a canal (I guess) that was used for defence. Also, in the centre of the old town there’s a statue of King Frederik II. What I like about this statue is that it is made of copper and due to oxidation it got an interesting greenish colour. Also, some buildings also have these copper roofs. You should totally visit this place! #norway #fredrikstad #oldtown #recommend
