Movik Fort is a historic German coastal fortification located near Bergen, Norway. Built during World War II by the occupying German forces, the fort once housed the second largest cannon in the world - a massive Krupp 380mm gun with a range of up to 55 kilometers (35 miles) and weighing 337 tonnes. The fortification sits in a commanding position above the Skagerrak Straits between Norway and Denmark, strategically positioned to control this important maritime passage.
Originally constructed as part of the Atlantic Wall defenses, the fort represents Norway's complex military history during the war years.
