Hvalsmoen

Hvalsmoen was the site of a former military camp to the north of Hønefoss in Ringerike in Buskerud county, Norway.

[1] In 1893, the Norwegian Parliament resolved to establish a military training camp to train engineer troops for the national Army.

The camp was the base for the Army engineering regiment (Hærens ingeniørregiment).

There were formerly a total of three military camps around Hønefoss: Hvalsmoen, Helgelandsmoen and Eggemoen.
