Kastellbakken


Kastellbakken is an abandoned ski jumping hill located at Ullern in Oslo, Norway.

History

It was the venue of Husebyrennet, Norway's and the world's most prestigious Nordic skiing tournament between 1879 and 1891. With a K-point at 20 metres.
The hill originally hosted Husebyrennet, between 1879 and 1891, except for 1880 and 1882, when the event was held in Akershus. From 1892, the tournament moved to Holmenkollbakken and was renamed the Holmenkollen Ski Festival.
Two world records were set in the hill, both by Norwegians: 20 metres by Olaf Haugann in 1879 and 22 metres set by Sveinung Svalastoga in 1881.
