About
Bastøy is an island in Horten Municipality in Vestfold county, Norway. The 2.23-square-kilometre (550-acre) island is owned by the government and it has no permanent residents, however, Bastøy Prison, a minimum-security prison, is located on the island, so there are always temporary residents on the island. The Bastøy Lighthouse was established on the island in 1840.
