Ny kai lagmannsholmen kristiansand
Lagmannsholmen was an island at the entrance to the western part of the harbor in Kristiansand municipality in Vest-Agder county, Norway. During the 1960s and 1970s, the island was expanded and ultimately connected to the mainland in order to expand the western harbor in the port of Kristiansand. The island was the fleet station for the Danish-Norwegian skjærgård fleet (a galley fleet) from 1686 forward until the construction of a headquarters for the navy in Fredriksværn in the years 1750-1758.
