Hi SK,

Thanks for the kind words.

Today I talked to the reenactors which was "Rommel and his staff" - the GFM-uniform is re-pro

The museum is GREAT! ...and most certainly worth a visit.
The complex consists of 455 constructions, of which 237 is heavy(ständige) bunkers.
...and covered an area of 9 square kilometers.
6000 german soldiers manned the fortress.

Hi,

Here is an aerial movie of the "Hanstholm I"(17cm battery), at Museumscenter Hanstholm...Batteri Hanstholm - redigeret udgave - 2. udgave on Vimeo

Museumscenter Hanstholm consists of "Hanstholm I"(17cm battery) and "Hanstholm II"(38cm Battery).
The two batteries is build right up against each other.

Fantastic area to walk in - close to the ocean.

Hi,

Visited the museum today, to take some pictures for you guys.

The museums-bunker is just one out of four 38cm bunkers in the Battery "Hanstholm II"
There are 250-300meters between the four 38cm bunkers - they are connected by railroad(for ammunition).
...between the 38cm bunkers there are some very big ammunition-bunkers, also connected by the railroad.

Each 38cm bunker covers an area of 3000 square meters.

....more pictures to come.

Very nice. Some pics remind me of "Olsen Banden"(Gæt hvilke LOL)

I also remember i had a very long discussion that turned into an argument here, with a Romanian guy in Denmark digging around the Bunker Museum. Told him it was illegal and he denied that.

Great thread mate

Vh, Lars

Down in the bunker there is a room which is only about this movie - unfortunately I did not take pictures in this room.

Hi Replace, as usual an excellent posting. The shear labour force to construct this installation must have been colossal and very expensive.
The airborne video was a nice touch, technology these days moving so fast ( bloody aliens interfering ) LOL
Thanks again for sharing and taking the time to upload the pis.
