Laksevågs Bueskyttere

Laksevågs Bueskyttere is a Buekorps (Bow Corps or Archery Brigade) in Bergen, founded 8 May 1894.

They still have their drills and practises on Sundays and the brigade has tight bonds to the urban district Laksevåg.

Petter Bøthun and Olaf Nygaard are considered to be the founders of the brigade which took place in Dr. Høygaard's garden, between the old fire station and Laxevaag Maskin & Jernskipsbyggeri.

Others who took part in the foundation were Rasmus Nygård, Nicolai Thorsen, Gustav Ellingsen and Alfred Andersen.

The brigade uses crossbow (bow), wooden shield and axe, spear, halberd, épée, saber and snare drum as their "weapons" and equipment.
