"The Battle of Vågen was a naval battle fought on 12 August 1665 off Bergen during the Second Anglo-Dutch War. It was fought in the harbour of Bergen, Norway , News of the kings' agreement reached Bergen a few days later, and the Norwegians attempted to negotiate with the English about a new attack on the Dutch ships, but by this point the English were no longer interested. Furthermore, the Dutch had prepared for a new attack by moving cannons from their ships to the mainland."
