    Thank you both for bringing us this fascinating location. Some very curious buildings scattered around that site. Especially the actual firing point with that very interesting back wall, and that curious square "bunker" on the top of the hill. Would love to have seen that site in operation just to get an idea of what purpose each bunker was used for. And all that just for one torpedo launch tube. The more you show us of these incredibly rare sites, the more it amazes me of how much time, effort, material, and manpower, was expended by the Germans on the Atlantic coast. Incredible. Thanks again for showing this unique place to us. Cheers to you both! Stay safe!

    Once again, some outstanding scenery and a magnificent WWII battery, but what a difference, cut out of the rocks and hidden with so much netting. As you say, it would have looked very different in deep winter, but in the summer, breath taking. Interesting those walls behind the launch tube, to me, looks like a blast deflector I have seen before, but who knows. EE having a great time again, and such stamina well done.

    I believe the wreck of Tirpitz are somewhere around also? I don't know how far up you are, but I assume quite far north in the country. Very interesting.... My grandfather and his father were in the resistance. The Germans took the family farm on the fjäll... They never got it back again. When I was a child, we spent our summers at that fjäll but further down. In a shed on the summer property, there were German helmet, bayonets and munition boxes, used as a part of the disguise when the resistance were out on mission to sabotage cables and other equipment... Love your videos from this area.

    The torpedo tubes used likely came from either of the destroyers Z5 Paul Jacobi or Z6 Theodore Riedel who had their quadruple launchers removed before returning back to Germany. I do have a picture that I believe shows these launchers.

    Thanks! That place is overwhelming. So much time and effort into planning, organizing, and constructing was needed. Enjoy your pre-emp on each video before you go on your adventures, outlining the historical events or any personal details pertaining to that particular site. Makes it that much more intriguing. The way you described it I could actually imagine the German soldiers preparing the torpedos and when sighting the enemy launching them towards their intended target. The bunker with the fireplace was amazing and quite spacious. Imagine the heat that the fireplace pumped out, while the soldiers were sitting around playing cards and talking about back home. Pretty effective defensive and protective layout. Thank you HH and EE. Keep safe and healthy.

    Wow, that was cool. I did not know they had an above ground torpedo setup. I thought they were all bunkers that just spit out the torpedo just above the water and were recessed into the mountain. Thank You for clearing that up for me.

    I'm surprised the Germans didn't have tons of torpedo launch sights in the Fjords, and along the Atlantic wall. This place looks like I could spend too much time exploring it, but I would enjoy every second doing it. I can't wait to see what you and EEs bring us next.

    What always gets me, is only 80yrs ago all these locations were full of active military operations. Soldiers in full combat mode running, screaming, and fighting. 80 yrs is nothing in the scope of things. my gpa was 101st, didn't speak about the war, except for how he was wounded from German artillery. i hope some day you can take us to Belgium, and in the woods around Foy. Anyway, thanks again for all you do in keeping these places alive for us

    What mesmerizing beauty with all the mountains, fjords, and other bodies of water. That was a pretty cool heavy duty square ammo bunker. Definitely suited the purpose. Just imagine when the railroad tracks were in operation transporting the torpedo heads and other heavy duty machinery needed. The bunker with the fireplace, do you think it was for all of the soldiers or just the senior officers? The bunkers did blend in well with the environment. Did you go into any of the other bunkers? Will you be going back with the ROV? You really know your stuff EE. Did your Dad know as much as you at your age? Thanks for taking us there. Oh yes and bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 EE.

    Is this the second one you have visited ? With a torpedo, you can set the depth and make it turn. A practical harbor defense weapon.

    This is very interesting, like most of the nice folks in the comments i never knew there was a land mounted torpedo launch site. I looked it up ave found an entry calling them Harpoons and says that they were usually either triple or quadruple launchers and mentions one at Herdla. I was curious whether any of these sites ever saw action but couldn't find any info on that. Anyway, great job as usual you guys and especially Eagle Eyes! Can't wait for the next one.

    One question HH, what is the energy source to fire that torpedo cannon. Would that be electrical like a sub or would it be gunpowder as on a surface ship. Thanks for what you do.

    History Hunter I'm guessing you don't tell these locations in the videos because you don't want to draw attention to the public. Love your show and what your doing just wish I knew some sort of vague location not to search them myself just because Im very curious the setting of these places it makes the story better. Anyways thanks for finding all these places. I would be happy with a simple country but I understand if you don't want to reveal even the country it defitnely keeps these places desolate. I'm from the united states and there is nothing but old civil war battlefields that are extremely documented around here. Anyway love your sites and Europe seems really cool that all these bunkers,wreckage,gun in placements,foxholes,etc are still around that haven't been visisted in 70-80 years or so
