A historic site with a dramatic backdrop: Stabben Fort is located on the island of Frøya and was part of the infamous Atlantic Wall – a 5,000km-long defensive line built by Nazi Germany during World War II from the Bay of Biscay to Kirkenes.
In the spring of 1941, the German occupiers began building a coastal fort on the Stabben Plateau. Houses were expropriated or demolished, and families were displaced. The entire area was sealed off with barbed wire and minefields. The main weapons were three 15cm cannons with a range of 22km.
