The Fredrikshamn Redoubt is an archaeological site found in Hisingen, Gothenburg, Sweden. During the final stages of the Hannibal's Feud, it served as a protective fortification for a temporary bridge across the Göta River. A Norwegian troop, under the command of Danish governor Hannibal Sehested, had severed the bridge, attempting to conquer Gothenburg on behalf of the Danish king. Sehested besieged Gothenburg from the Fredrikshamn Redoubt, constructed in 1645 during this attack.
