Fetsund Battery

Fetsund forms the center of the municipality Lillestrøm Viken, Norway. The name comes from the local geography, Fet means "where water meets grass". As for the -sund part, it simply means 'strait, inlet'. Accordingly, Fetsund is located at the strait of Glomma, Norway's largest river, just before it enters Øyeren nature reservation, and this is the place the logging industry in years past pulled the logs out of the water for transport to steam sawmills. Today, Fetsund and its surrounding areas is a small town and is mainly a residential area with very little industry. The old log industry is gone, but its buildings and site is still preserved as a national museum, Fetsund Lenser. Fetsund's close proximity to Lillestrøm and the nation's capital, Oslo, have been contributing to the fact that the town has grown much larger in recent years. Its small-town qualities, low population density, and closeness to the capital, makes it a preferred place to live. Fetsund's history dates back to the ancient kings' road going from the medieval town of Oslo towards the neighbouring country Sweden. As Fetsund was the shortest distance by ferry or boat over the river Glomma, the place naturally grew into the urbanized area it is today. Now there are two bridges in Fetsund spanning the Glomma, and it is still the only crossing within the area. Fetsund has a church with an altarpiece dating from the 17th century. Fetsund's railway station was built in the 1860s, which is still standing today and is used by people working in Oslo and to a lesser extent Lillestrøm.

The Fetsund Booms (Norwegian: Fetsund Lenser) are a Norwegian national cultural heritage monument, log driving museum, and wetland center at the outlet of the Glomma River into Lake Øyeren in Fetsund in Viken county. The Fetsund Booms were set up as a timber sorting facility in 1861 and operated until 1985, when log driving came to an end on the Glomma River. Today the facility is part of the Akershus Museum. The millennium site for the municipality of Fetsund is located next to the Vinkelen building at the facility. It is a flood marker in the form of a stone about 7 meters (23 ft) high with markings to record the highest flood levels on the Glomma River.

The New Fetsund Bridge (Norwegian: Fetsund nye bru) is a road bridge on Norwegian National Road 22 that crosses the Glomma River at Fetsund in the municipality of Fet in Viken county, Norway. It is 595 meters (1,952 ft) long, and its longest span measures 90 meters (300 ft).Construction on the new road bridge began in 1954, and it was opened by King Olav V on December 12, 1959. The bridge stands a few hundred meters downstream from the Fetsund Bridge, which was previously a combined road and rail bridge. There was long a need for the new bridge because the old bridge was built for an axle load of barely three tons.The Norwegian Public Roads Administration carried out a feasibility study for building a new road bridge in Fetsund in 2012.

The Fetsund Bridge (Norwegian: Fetsund bru) refers to two bridges: a road bridge and a railway bridge that cross the Glomma River at Fetsund in the municipality of Fet in Viken county, Norway.The first bridge, a wooden structure, was built in 1860 for the Kongsvinger Line. The municipalities of Fet and Høland split the cost of a road for horses and carts on the downstream side of the bridge. In 1877 the bridge was rebuilt, and the wooden pilings were replaced with stone.The construction of the bridge led to the Bingen Booms at Sørumsand being relocated to Fetsund. After some time, it turned out that the old bridge could lead to large flows of timber clogging when being driven on the river. This led to the construction of a new and higher bridge a few dozen meters upstream from the old wooden bridge. The new railway bridge was made of steel with seven spans, each approximately 60 meters (200 ft) long. This bridge, with a length of 420 meters (1,380 ft), was opened in 1919. This was built as a combined rail and road bridge with a lane on either side. When a new road bridge was later built, the roadways on the 1919 bridge were closed to cars in 1959, and the upstream roadway was converted to use as a walking and cycling route. In the 1980s, both roadways were removed and a narrow footbridge was installed on the north side. This marked the end of one of the last combined rail and road bridges in Norway. To protect the approach to the old railway bridge, the Fetsund Battery was installed on the slope west of the bridge in 1898.After the Second World War, a prefabricated pontoon bridge was stored at Stasjonsstranda, between the bridges, for many years. The New Fetsund Bridge for National Road 22 was opened on December 12, 1959 a few hundred meters downstream from the railway bridge.
