Second World War bunkers at the beach Løkken, Furreby, Denmark 2019 - 4K Drone footage

Here is the history behind the grey concrete structures and why they were built: Nazi Germany marched into Denmark and Norway 9th of April 1940 in an operation called Unternehmen Weserübung. The long coastline of Denmark was occupied and needed to be defended, but with the use of as few troops as possible. The construction of the Atlantic Wall was issued. It was an extensive system of coastal defense and fortifications, systematically constructed from the Spanish and French border to North Cape in Norway. These bunkers are therefore part of the Atlantic Wall. In Denmark alone, there were between 8000 - 7000 bunkers. To simplify the construction process, they came up with a number of standardized bunker designs called Regelbau. It was many different bunkers for many different purposes. They were easy to build and eventually easier to use when troops had to move around and were familiar with the military installations. It is interesting to note that the Danish state paid for the bunker construction with Danish labor and contractors. In 1944 more than 74000 persons worked on the project. Today it is calculated to be too expensive to demolish the remaining concrete structures and most of them are part of Denmark’s cultural heritage program. The coastal battery at Løkken at Furreby, seen in the video and pictures below, was once built on land, on top of the dunes. Today, most of the bunkers are situated on the beach or in the water. This is the result of many years of erosion of the dunes by the ever-pushing waters of the North Sea.
