Movik Fort is a historic German coastal fortification located in Norway, overlooking the Skagerrak Straits between Norway and Denmark. Originally constructed during World War II by the German Wehrmacht, the fort once housed the second largest cannon in the world - a massive Krupp 380mm gun with a range of up to 55 kilometers and weighing 337 tonnes. The fort sits in a commanding position above the straits, serving as a key defensive installation during the German occupation of Norway from 1940 to 1945.
