Although the plot of the series Fortitude town is located in the north of Norway, in reality the series was shot in Iceland.

Conclusion
This series is a worthy product of the modern film industry, demonstrating not only high quality shooting and skill, but also a fascinating, interesting story with a unique plot. Despite the fact that the series are now experiencing a real boom, there are not so many truly worthy works. "Fortitude" is rightfully considered one of the best in recent years.
It is not surprising that such an outstanding project has a large army of fans. However, to say that the series is very popular would not be entirely appropriate. Against the backdrop of such hits among multi-series projects as “Game of Thrones”, “Very Strange Things” and “Wild West World”, he is a little lost. But this in no way means that the series is worse than them or inferior to them in something. On the contrary, at some points he may even surpass these "mastodons" among the movie series.
