Exhibitions

Up until a few years ago, the torpedo battery was a top-secret defence facility. Today the fully equipped battery is protected as cultural heritage. Join one of our guided tours and experience the times of the Cold War.

On the 15th of December 1943, the German fighter aircraft Yellow-16 took off from Fliegerhorst in Herdla. It returned 64 years later. You can see Yellow-16 in its own exhibition at Herdla fort. Here you can also learn the entire story of the aircraft's fate.

With Herdla Fort and the Gul-16 building as a starting point, you can get to know the little island with a lot of exciting things to offer. After a visit here, you will understand why Herdla has such beautiful beaches and such rich bird life. You will also get an insight into the island's dramatic war history.
