About

Stauning Battery

Remains from World War II. The cannon battery in Halby was built by the Germans during WW II to be able to fire upon the entrance to the fjord by Hvide Sande. Their range was more than 20 km. From Stauning Airport you can see many of the bunkers in west. The majority is hard to find though, since they are overgrown. The German bunker installation is situated 3-4 km north of Stauning on the road to Ringkøbing.
