Widerstandsnest 82 (WN 82) is a former German defense position on the Atlantic coast near Grandcamp-Maisy, Normandy.

Widerstandsnest 82 was armed with a 50 mm gun, which was protected by a casemate. In addition, the position also had a tobruk, with a tank turret on top. WN 82 was west of Pointe du Hoc. As a result, it was not subject to direct attacks. Nevertheless, the position was under fire prior to the landings.
