The story

Steinvikholm Castle (Norwegian: Steinvikholm slott) is an island fortress on the Skatval peninsula in the present-day Stjørdal Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. The castle was built over seven years, from 1525 to 1532, by Norway's last Roman Catholic Archbishop, Olav Engelbrektsson. Steinvikholm castle became a powerful fortification by the time it was built, and it is the largest construction raised in the Norwegian Middle Ages.
