Hitler's teeth

Hitler's teeth, Military fortification in Brusand, Norway

Description

This fortification consists of large stone blocks arranged in rows along the Norwegian coastline at Brusand, creating a defensive barrier designed to stop potential landings. The blocks are distributed across the landscape in a pattern that reflects the military strategy of that era.

History

These blocks were built between 1942 and 1944 as part of the Atlantic Wall, a German defense system that extended from southern France to northern Norway. The project represented a massive fortification effort during the German occupation.

Culture

Locals from Dalane and southern Jæren participated in building these fortifications, with many intentionally slowing their work to hinder German military operations. This quiet resistance is remembered in stories about the workers who spent time here.

Practical

The site is accessible year-round, with parking areas nearby and information panels on location. The stones are easy to view and require no special equipment or conditions to experience.

Did you know?

The shallow waters near this coastline made enemy vessels particularly vulnerable, which is why the Germans chose to fortify this location so heavily. This geographic feature explains the concentration of defenses in this specific area.
