	(GCQ1D0) Fredriksten Slave Cemetery by steve_c and Mags
		Fredriksten slave cemetery ("Slavekirkegården") is signposted 0.5km from the main road on the same post that also points to Fredriksten camping, but in the opposite direction.
		However, the road is very narrow and has no parking, so it is best to park at the fortress somewhere (eg N59° 06.956 E11° 23.896 by a cafe) and go by foot or cycle.
		The history of slavery is older but not well known: there is a reference in 1716 to it being a continuing situation at Fredriksten.
