Varbergs Fästning - Varberg Fortress

Long before the Varberg Fortress was built, Wardberg Mountain was used for surveillance. The first part in the mountain's name – Ward – means guard. If enemies approached from the sea, guards lit a large fire on the mountain as a signal for defense. At the end of the 13th century, a castle was built on the hill.
Construction of the fortress began in the 1570s. The fortress building was a vast construction project involving large parts of Northern Halland's population. In addition to all the carpenters, brick burners, blacksmiths, and other craftsmen who worked on the construction, about 1,000 farmers were transporting stone and earth to the building. The work was part of their tax payment.
Varberg Fortress was completed in 1618 as one of Europe’s most modern fortresses but was never involved in any war after that.
