    At the end of 1943, the German Navy decided that a coastal battery should be set up in Bunken Klitplantage Binnendünen to cover both Tannis Bugt and Ålbæk Bugt.

    Construction began in January 1944, and by April work was sufficiently advanced for the guns to be trial-fired.

    The battery was armed with four Danish 12 cm coastal guns "borrowed" from the Danish Coastal Defence. Until March 1944 the guns were located in the coastal batteries Løkken-Nord and Frederikshavn, which were converted to more modern guns.

    In 1944 the Nazis built some small coastal batteries of light concrete construction to secure the gap between the strongly fortified positions.
