Hi,

does anyone know at which location this batterie is located.
Should be somewhere at the Trondheim Fjord, but I am not sure if this is correct.
thx for any information

Google translator isn't too bad on norwegian-english translations: http://translate.google.no/ (just paste the url of the page you want to translate into the box).

Rødbergodden coastal fortress was a norwegian post-WW2 establishment, built in the late 50's if I'm not mistaken (unlike many other of it's kind, it didn't utilize ex-german installations). Just 1km to the south - at the place called Spira, you'll find some remains of the german HKB 21./972 Rödberghamn [4x10,5cm K 331 (f)] though.

Going 10km up north from Rødbergodden, you'll find the closed entrance for the Malangen coastal fortress (torpedobattery). This was the last (and best fortified) norwegian coastal fortress to be established. It was finished in 2001, and laid down a few days after the test-shootings.
