Route: Oslo - Drobak - Fortress Oscarsborg - Oslo
Duration: 5 h
Half an hour outside Oslo, on the east side of the Oslo Fjord, lies Drobak. The narrow 18th- and 19th-century streets lined with small wooden houses give the town an idyllic touch. On an island just outside Drobak you can visit the fortress Oscarsborg. The centre of Drobak is the square Torget where you find the popular Tregaarden's Christmas House and Santa's Post Office. They have Norway's biggest permanent Christmas exhibition and a special Santa Claus post stamp. By the charming boat harbour there is also an Aquarium, with the world's only "lutefisk" museum, and Badeparken a little north of the centre is a great place for swimming. From Drobak there are regular ferries to the fortress Oscarsborg. The trip takes 5 minutes and there is no charge for entering the island. The next point of our tour will be fortress Oscarsborg. The construction of the fortress was finished in 1853. It got the name Oscarsborg when king Oscar I visited the fortress in 1855. The fortress has a proud and dramatic history, and is best known for the sinking of the German heavy cruiser Blucher on 9 April 1940 during World War II.
