Thyborøn Fortress, Military bunker complex in Thyborøn, Denmark.

The concrete fortification stretches across 5 kilometers of coastline and contains 110 bunkers positioned near the North Sea shore.

German forces constructed this defensive installation between 1940 and 1943 as a crucial component of the Atlantic Wall defense system.

The bunkers now function as educational sites where visitors learn about wartime operations through preserved military equipment and information displays.

Visitors can access many open bunkers along the beach, with guide services and equipment rentals available at the local Kystcenteret center.

Several bunkers offer overnight accommodation options, allowing guests to experience the concrete structures as temporary living quarters.
