Movik Fort is a historic German coastal fortification located in Norway, overlooking the Skagerrak Straits between Norway and Denmark. 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 and weighing 337 tonnes. The fort sits in a commanding position and was part of the extensive German defensive network constructed along the Norwegian coast during the occupation period from 1940 to 1945.
