Akershus Castle Church, Oslo, Norway
Akershus Castle was used as a prison prior to WWII too. It housed many famous prisoners, including early Norwegian socialists.
The fortress houses a castle, church, the Norwegian Armed Forces Museum, a model of Christiania (Oslo’s former name), and a prison museum. In addition, many members of the Norwegian royal family are buried in the castle’s mausoleum.
