Exhibitions

Until the early 2000s, the torpedo battery was kept as a top-secret defence facility. Today, the fully equipped battery is preserved as a protected cultural heritage site. Join one of our guided tours and experience a unique glimpse into the Cold War era.

Yellow 16 is exhibited in its own hall at Herdla fort. The wreck is fragile and deformed after a dramatic accident and many years on the seafloor, but it is still easy to identify as a Focke Wulf 190 – one of the most legendary fighter aircraft from World War II.

In this compact exhibition, we present the history of Herdla through photographs, film, and text. In addition, we have selected a number of objects, each of which represents a piece of the island’s history.
