Furulund Bunker, German World War II military bunker in Vækerøåsen, Norway

The L-shaped bunker extends 20 to 30 meters into the mountain with a main entrance on the northeast side and an emergency exit on the southwest.

From February 1945 until Norway's liberation, Heinrich Fehlis, leader of Sipo and SD operations, established his headquarters within this fortified structure.

The construction involved 160 prisoners from Grini prison camp who performed forced labor to complete the bunker by the end of November 1944.

The exterior structure features a single-story grey stone wall containing an entrance door, a hatch, and a barred window for security purposes.

The bunker incorporated neighboring properties and a commercial building from 1937, transforming the residential area into a military command center.
