Although the fortress is closed in winter, it is still worth visiting.

In the Middle Ages, Bohus Fortress was considered one of the largest, most massive and impregnable fortresses in Northern Europe. The fortress was the southernmost border fortress in Norway, built in 1308 by the Norwegian King Håkon V. Magnusson. The fortress is located on a 40 metre high cliff on the island of Bagaholmen. At that time, Bagaholmen was surrounded by the River Göta and lay at the intersection of the three neighbouring kingdoms (Norway to the west, Sweden to the east and Denmark to the south). From the fortress there was good control over shipping on the river.

Walk around the fortress and listen to the walls telling their stories of kings, saints, power struggles, traitors and prisoners. 

Be sure to use the free audio guide. Very exciting and informative.

ruins of a fortress. In 1308 the first wooden castle was built here.

At the foot of the castle there is a snack bar that offers delicious ice cream, among other things.
