About

Audunborg (lit. 'Audun's castle') was a castle and fortification built by Norwegian nobleman Audun Hugleiksson on his inherited estate near the village of Ålhus on the shores of the Jølstravatnet in what is now Sunnfjord Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. The site was located about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) north-east of the village of Vassenden.
