Description

This research is automated and may contain errors.

Movik Fort is a historic German-built coastal fortification located in Norway, constructed during World War II. The fort sits in a commanding position above the Skagerrak Straits between Norway and Denmark, serving as a strategic defensive position. It once housed the second largest cannon in the world—a Krupp 380mm gun with an impressive range of up to 55 kilometers (35 miles) and weighing 337 tonnes.

The fort's massive artillery installation was part of the Atlantic Wall defenses and played a significant role in controlling access to the Norwegian coastline during the war.
