Christiansø since 1684

In the year 1684 the Danish King Christian 5th decided to build a bastion on the small rock islands. He started to built Storetårn, Lilletårn, the main houses and the big wall around the islands. Suddenly more than 450 men were living on the islands.
You can read more about the islands on the Christiansø homepage in Danish, German and Polish (wondering why they didn't translate into English)

 These islands look ready for both war, and fun while watching the birds flying. Great job of presenting this.
