<p>A reconstruction of the Battle of Alvøen, which originally occured during the "Gunboat war" of 1807-1814, 16 May 1808. Alvøen is situated outside Bergen, western Norway, and the reconstruction took place at 16 May 2008. 
</p><p>The small gunboat in front is "Øster Riisøer 3", identical to the type of boat used in the battle. The white ship flying british colours is the Norwegian ship Loyal, which at this event took the role as HMS Tartar, which nearly lost the battle in 1808, but managed to escape. 
</p>
The reason for the Norwegian gunboat flying Danish colours, is that Denmark and Norway was in a union at the time of the battle.
