    Very nice little fortress from about 1680. Its possible to spend the night at the fortress hotel, eat and drink at the cafe. Enjoying the view over the Glomma valley and surrounding forrest. The restaurant boasts and amazing wine cellar and staff is very friendly

    Nice historical fortress with a great view over the town and river. Easy access to the public and there is a hotel on the property. Perfect for a short stop.
