No. Kristianstad was also founded by Christian IV of Denmark who's idea also was to build a fort protecting the encampment from attacks but it was his son Frederick III who was able to complete his plans for fortification so it was named after King Frederick III of Denmark.

That's right! First the town was named Frederiksodde (Frederick's Point) but the name was Latinized later.

Your go Fred.


Oh and the full address would be Prinsessegade 29, 7000 Fredericia, Denmark, that's Fredericia Teater on the right

So it's more than 24 hours we can wait a bit more for Fred's new picture or we can just move on? Rule #6

See rules post 1

1. Post a screen shot of a town or city outside of Ireland;
2. Picture should contain at least one public point of reference. i.e. Church, monument, pub, river, cliff, mountain;
3. Where the pic is proving too difficult the poster can give clues or post a further more obvious pic of the town or city should be posted;
4. Correct guesser gets to post next, unless they waive their go on thread;
5. Correct guesser should wait for confirmation from the poster that they are actually correct before posting, unless the poster hasn't come back to the thread for a few hours or they can post the same pic from street view;
6. If the correct guesser hasn't posted a pic in 24 hrs or has not responded to a guess within 24 hours it's open to the community to post a new pic;
7. 1 guess per post and no successive posting;
8. OP doesn't confirm/deny the country/continent for the first 20 guesses or 24 hours;
9. keep it light-hearted and fun.

What is that in the background on the left? Sort of above where the red van is... I thought it was a sports stadium but there's nothing on the map that looks like it.
