Bunkermuseum Hanstholm

The museum complex spans 2,500 square meters within Northern Europe's largest World War II fortification, containing restored military rooms and defensive installations.

The Hanstholm Fortress, transformed into a museum in 2002, served as a strategic German military post controlling maritime traffic in the North Sea during World War II.

The exhibition 'Enemy and Neighbour: The Occupation in Hanstholm' documents the daily experiences of local residents during the German occupation through artifacts and photographs.

The museum operates from April through October, with daily hours from 10:00 to 16:00, extending to 17:00 during summer months from June to August.

An operational ammunition train transports visitors through the extensive network of bunkers within the battery during the summer season.
