Skar leir, Heritage site and military base in Oslo Municipality, Norway
The military complex contains administrative buildings, garages, and a command residence situated at the end of Maridalen valley.
Established in 1861 as a gunpowder factory, Skar leir operated until 1998, serving different military purposes throughout its operational years.
