Interesting facts about this location
Battle of Hakadal
The battle at Hakadal was the first battle in Snorre Sturlasson's narration of Harald Fairhair's unification of Norway. Heimskringla tells of how when king Halfdan the Black of Vestfold died his son Harald was still only a child of ten. The kings of the surrounding countries quickly attempted to take advantage of the perceived weakness of the child king. While several kings from Oppland were gathering forces in the north, king Gandalf Alfgeirsson of Alfheimr was the first to strike.
