Movik Fort is a historic German-built coastal fortification located above the Skagerrak Straits near Kristiansand, Norway. Constructed during World War II, the fort once housed the second largest cannon in the world—a massive Krupp 380mm artillery piece with a range of up to 55 kilometers (35 miles) and weighing 337 tonnes. The site sits in a commanding position overlooking the strategic waterway between Norway and Denmark, reflecting the German military's emphasis on controlling key maritime approaches during the occupation of Norway.
Today, the fort stands as a testament to Norway's wartime history and the extensive military infrastructure built during this period.
