Old factory building along the Alna river - Oslos longest river. I used to run along this river quite often.

The factory building has housed both a paint and gun powder factory.

The gun powder production was off to a very bad start, already after three weeks of operation, an "accident" occurred. The entire factory exploded and of the 9 workers, 6 died instantly and and 2 died from their injuries.
