Karjohansvern (''Karljohansvern Orlogsstasjon, KJV'') at Horten was the main base for the Royal Norwegian Navy from 1819 to 1963. 〔(''Karljohansvern'' (Store norske leksikon) )〕 In 1818, it was decided to establish a naval base in Horten. It was first called ''Hortens verft'', and later ''Marinens Hovedværft'' until King Oscar I named it ''Carljohansværn værft'' in 1854 (after his father Karl Johan). The shipyards was begun in 1820 and the first launch, a frigate, was in 1828. In 1953, the Norwegian Parliament determined the Navy's main base should be moved to Bergen. When the new headquarters at Haakonsvern was officially opened in 1963, a number of functions were transferred from Karljohansvern. In 1968, the National Government took over the shipyard and renamed it A/S Horten Verft. which was closed down in 1987. The Officer Candidate School for the Navy remained on site until 2005. The Naval District East (ØSD) based there was disbanded in 2002. The Royal Norwegian Navy Museum (''Marinemuseet'') and the fortress Norske Løve on Vealøs remain. Only the island of Vealøs, which is connected to Horten with a bridge, is still owned by the Department of Defence. The whole island is still a military area, and the area is cordoned off with fencing, video surveillance and guard booths. 〔(''A/S Horten Verft''(Store norske leksikon) )〕 〔(''Vealøs'' (Store norske leksikon) )〕 〔(''Marinemuseet'' (Store norske leksikon) )〕 〔(''Historien om Horten Verft'' (Vestfoldbaater) )〕 The former shipyard has been converted into an industrial park, ''Horten Industripark''. The Royal Norwegian Navy Museum and the Royal Norwegian Navy Band (Horten), a department of the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment and some of the Navy's school administration are still present. In 2001, Preus Museum moved to the former naval facility. As of 2006, the entire base including 73 buildings has been given protected heritage status by the Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage. 〔(''Karljohansvern Fortress'' (VisitNorway) )〕 〔(''The Royal Norwegian Navy Band, Horten'' (Norwegian Armed Forces) )〕 〔(''Preus museum'' (visitnorway) )〕 ==Picture Gallery== File:MarinemuseetHorten.jpg|Royal Norwegian Navy Museum File:Karljohansvern magasin.jpg| Artillery Magazine File:Sjømilitære korps kaserne Karljohansvern.jpg| Naval Corps Barracks File:Lokalhistorisk senter horten.JPG|Local History Center File:Preus museum.jpg|Preus Museum ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Karljohansvern」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
