Bangsbo Fort - Bunkermuseum

Bangsbo Fort is located on a hilltop plateau on the southern outskirts of Frederikshavn, and the vantage point 82 metres above sea level provides a remarkable view out over Frederikshavn and the waters of the Kattegat. On clear days, the it is possible to see all the way to both Skagen and Læsø.

Worth a trip. There are loads of bunkers here, each themed differently and best consumed by purchasing the extra entry ticket to have full access to all the bunkers

One of the most coolest places in Denmark I've been watching at bunkers and also in one of the bunkers you get too hear how is was to be questioned by the Danish gestspo during the 2. World War, "that's a very though challenge to get through" so if you are strong mentally you should go for it and it is not for everyvody. My experience was very scary. But you also get a lot of information about how they used the area. So I totally recommend it to anyone is interested in both photography and history.

Military history at its best! South of Frederikshavn is the 80 meter high hill Pikkerbakken where the German Kriegsmarine had a group of bunkers built during WWII to protect the harbor. In 1944 the bunkers were armed with Krupp cannons from the Danish artillery ship Niels Juel. After the Danish Navy took over the facilities at the end of WWII, Bangsbo Fort became an important control center during the heyday of the Cold War (1952-1962). The Danish navy still controls shipping traffic in the Kattegat and Skagerak from this hill. Since 2005, the part of the hill with the old bunkers has been open to the public, the cannons have been restored and the Kystmuseet opened its doors. And that is only to be welcomed, because the museum and bunkers are absolutely worth a visit!

You feel history at that place - absolut great.
80 Bunker are in this area. Its free to go in every one, if its open.

It was Sunday but we were able to see the bunkers and the boat.

Well worth the hike, even in streaming rain and battering winds just before closing. If you're going to skagen remember to get the slightly more expensive ticket that grants admittance to the kystmuseet there as well

Very well maintained and presented WW2 gun battery system. The reenactors are very knowledgeable and helpful. Worth your time if you enjoy WW2 history.

Beautiful place to know history with an awesome view of sea with scenic views

Super nice :)

A very beautiful place, i am coming many times here for relaxing and for a nice view 😊

Great location with history and a SPECTACULAR view over Fredrikshamn!

well worth a visit even if its just for the view ,lots to see and a good day out .

A very good museum! Not particularly big but with loads of interesting artifacts and great info. Highly recommended!

Even though that the museum is not open on Sunday, most of the bunkers are freely accessible while only a bunch of them are permanently locked and some are accessible only with ticket.
Overall, it is a remarkable piece of history which is definitely worth visiting.

Definitely worth a visit ..history in its making reminder of war theses big tanks eery India beautiful view of Frederickhavn from here has a Cafe too though closed on a Mondayb

Very interesting place to visit. Bunkers were surprisingly clean. Most of them can be entered without even paying the entrance fee. Phenomenal view from up there.

Very interesting museum in Bunkers build by German WW2 occupants. It's very impressive and restored very carefully to show how it was to be stationed in these bunkers. Lots of interesting history.

Unlike most museums I have seen, Bangsbo is by far the most authentic. You litterary walk by the forts used in WW2 and learn about how the Danes fought during that period. Everything is preserved and entering the forts gives you chills. All in all it is a very active way of learning. Also the view of Frederikshavn is stunning.

Interesting bunker museum.
