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. Situated in a commanding position above the Skagerrak Straits between Norway and Denmark, 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 fort was part of the extensive German defensive network established in occupied Norway between 1940 and 1945, when the Kriegsmarine converted several Norwegian coastal cities into submarine bases and fortified positions.
