However, it can be just as rewarding to hike along marked trails past water and wading birds, and evocative remnants of war and Viking history.\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-drop-cap\">It&#8217;s best to walk the historical trail on Trondenes after visiting the&nbsp;Trondenes Historical Centre. This is because the centre provides a background to the historical elements that you will see on the trail, which date from the Second World War and the Viking Age.&nbsp;Trondenes Church&nbsp;and the&nbsp;Adolf Gun&nbsp;are also in this area and are taken in by the hiking trail on Trondenes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-grid wp-container-core-group-is-layout-9649a0d9

He came to Trondenes in February 1943, and died three months later of poor general health and circulation failure, undoubtedly as a result of the hard labour and lack of food. However, his diary survived the war, and his descriptions of the conditions are one of the most important sources of information, helping us to understand what happened in the prison camp on Trondenes. At the sight of the dirty, cold and cramped huts, he writes &#8216;now it is clear to me that we have been brought here to die&#8217;. An exhibition in the Trondenes Historical Centre presents him and the camp in more detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-graveyard\">Graveyard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Just outside the graveyard wall, north of Trondenes Church, is a monument to those who died. A classic Soviet monument built of red stone commemorates the 800 men who lost their lives, and the South Troms Museum documents 413 of them. This monument was erected in the graveyard that was created for the bodies when the camp was operational. In 1952, all of the war graves in Northern Norway were brought together to one place, Tj\u00f8tta on Helgeland. This decision was met with fierce resistance in Harstad, but it was the height of the Cold War: people did not trust the Soviets who came to visit the numerous war graves in Northern Norway, believing them to be spies.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-4\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/dag.roland-0366.jpg\" data-size=\"1201x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/dag.roland-0366.jpg\" alt=\"The north bound Hurtigruten sailing out, with the Trondenes peninsula in the background, and the steep mountains of Gryt\u00f8ya in the far back \u00a9 Dag Roland\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/dag.roland-0366.jpg\" data-caption=\"The north bound Hurtigruten sailing out, with the Trondenes peninsula in the background, and the steep mountains of Gryt\u00f8ya in the far back \u00a9 Dag Roland\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TrondenesChurch2_JunitWeber.jpg\" data-size=\"800x1200\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TrondenesChurch2_JunitWeber-768x1152.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/TrondenesChurch2_JunitWeber.jpg\" data-caption=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/003210_Soer-Troms-Museum_www.nordnorge.com_.jpg\" data-size=\"427x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">03<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/003210_Soer-Troms-Museum_www.nordnorge.com_.jpg\" alt=\"Helgenfigur fra Trondenes Museum \u00a9 S\u00f8r-Troms Museum\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/003210_Soer-Troms-Museum_www.nordnorge.com_.jpg\" data-caption=\"Helgenfigur fra Trondenes Museum \u00a9 S\u00f8r-Troms Museum\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/22819550839_dac60d73e4_o.jpg\" data-size=\"1199x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">04<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/22819550839_dac60d73e4_o.jpg\" alt=\"The remnants of the baracks in the prisoner camp at Trondenes.

Now those trees have been removed, and a path runs through the remains of the camp, though there is not much left to see of it. The foundations of the watchtower are still there, and you can just make out the outline of the small huts. It seems almost incomprehensible that there was room in each hut for 120 men, 60 on the day shift and 60 on the night shift, and you can&#8217;t even begin to understand the scale of their suffering. Amongst the undergrowth in the innermost part of the area is the &#8216;Russian Church&#8217;, a roofless, overgrown stone building that was unlikely to have been a church, and was probably an ammunition store.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-4\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/003088_Baard-Loeken_www.nordnorge.com-2-1.jpg\" data-size=\"1202x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/003088_Baard-Loeken_www.nordnorge.com-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"Trondenes church\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/003088_Baard-Loeken_www.nordnorge.com-2-1.jpg\" data-caption=\"Trondenes church\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/95A6104.jpg\" data-size=\"1200x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/95A6104.jpg\" alt=\"Medieval farm Trondenes (c) S\u00f8r-Troms Museum\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/95A6104.jpg\" data-caption=\"Medieval farm Trondenes (c) S\u00f8r-Troms Museum\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/oivind-arvola-midnattssola.jpg\" data-size=\"2400x1062\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">03<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/oivind-arvola-midnattssola-768x340.jpg\" alt=\"Sommernatt i Harstad \u00a9 \u00d8ivind Arvola \/ Harstad kommune \" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/oivind-arvola-midnattssola.jpg\" data-caption=\"Sommernatt i Harstad \u00a9 \u00d8ivind Arvola \/ Harstad kommune \" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MIDNIGHTSUN-HDR2-4961265-Foto_Stig_Helgesen-scaled.jpg\" data-size=\"2560x1681\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">04<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MIDNIGHTSUN-HDR2-4961265-Foto_Stig_Helgesen-768x504.jpg\" alt=\"Midnight Sun over the fjords near Harstad \u00a9 Stig Helgesen\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MIDNIGHTSUN-HDR2-4961265-Foto_Stig_Helgesen-scaled.jpg\" data-caption=\"Midnight Sun over the fjords near Harstad \u00a9 Stig Helgesen\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: Trondenes church<\/figcaption><figcaption>02: Medieval farm Trondenes (c) S\u00f8r-Troms Museum<\/figcaption><figcaption>03: Sommernatt i Harstad \u00a9 \u00d8ivind Arvola \/ Harstad kommune <\/figcaption><figcaption>04: Midnight Sun over the fjords near Harstad \u00a9 Stig Helgesen<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-finnmark-camp\">Finnmark Camp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Between 1944 and 1945, 50,000 people were forcibly evacuated from Finnmark and North Troms. Since the destruction in much of the area was total, these people could not go home as soon as the war ended. So the German huts used by engineering groups such as Organisation Todt during the construction of the Adolf Gun were then used as temporary accommodation for the evacuees. These huts are also gone, so you can just see the outline of some of them on the ground. Although the occupants lived there in conditions that for us would be wretched, these huts were far more comfortable than those housing Russian prisoners during the war.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-laugen-is-a-small-bird-reservoir\">Laugen is a small bird reservoir<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The path leads past a small lake, Laugen, surrounded by rushes and marsh plants.

class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-vikings-in-altevagen\"> The Vikings in Altev\u00e5gen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A short onward hike takes you to Altev\u00e5gen, on the west side of the Trondenes peninsula. Here you can see the outlines of where two boathouses once stood. The biggest site is 30 metres long, and is believed to have housed a sizeable Viking ship. The most likely owner of this ship was Asbj\u00f8rn Selsbane, a prominent Viking killed by Olav the Holy&#8217;s men in 1024. In accordance with the Vikings&#8217; code of honour, Olav the Holy was then killed by Tore Hund at the battle of Stiklestad in 1030. All this tells us that the site of the grand house on Trondenes was a political hotspot in the 11th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-walk-on-trondenes-is-a-well-marked-trail\">The walk-on Trondenes is a well-marked trail<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A well-marked trail runs through the area, with a good surface that is suitable for wheelchair users. Information boards tell you more about everything you can see. The Trondenes Historical Centre, medieval Trondenes Church, and the huge Adolf Gun are in the area. You can walk along a marked trail from Harstad town centre, visit the attractions, stroll along the historic route and enjoy some light refreshments at the cafe at the Trondenes Historical Centre. This cafe is open during the school holidays, but at other times you are welcome to take a packed lunch and buy a cup of coffee there. The landscape here is extremely well preserved, with groves of trees, meadows, and buildings from various different eras. About 200 different species of flowers and ferns grow in this area, and some of them are quite rare this far north. The vegetation is kept short by grazing short-tailed sheep and Nordland cattle, which is their contribution to caring for this landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-4\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/dag.roland-1151.jpg\" data-size=\"2400x1600\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/dag.roland-1151-2048x1365.jpg\" alt=\"The street Rikard Kaarb\u00f8s gate with its varied architecture, dating a good 100 years back \u00a9 Dag Roland\/Visit Harstad\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/dag.roland-1151.jpg\" data-caption=\"The street Rikard Kaarb\u00f8s gate with its varied architecture, dating a good 100 years back \u00a9 Dag Roland\/Visit Harstad\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/00022_DBU38422David_Buettner.jpg\" data-size=\"2400x1600\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/00022_DBU38422David_Buettner-768x512.jpg\" alt=\"Shop in downtown Harstad in a picturesqe fin-de-si\u00e9cle wooden house \u00a9 David Buettner\/Visit Harstad\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/00022_DBU38422David_Buettner.jpg\" data-caption=\"Shop in downtown Harstad in a picturesqe fin-de-si\u00e9cle wooden house \u00a9 David Buettner\/Visit Harstad\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/rikard-kaarbos-plass-harstad-oivind-arvola.jpg\" data-size=\"2400x1800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">03<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/rikard-kaarbos-plass-harstad-oivind-arvola-768x576.jpg\" alt=\"Rikard Kaarb\u00f8s plass is the square forming the absolute centre of Harstad.
