A visit is an expensive option for us. Our funds are used for the restauration of the M219 and the rest of the battery.
Maybe someone who lives near this museum can help us with the messurements ?

Re: HKB 13/983 Grötavär II and HKB 13/983 elgsnes the same
The mix up must have something to do with the cold war, maybe there lies the reason the name Grötavär II pops up. I dont know why the same number as Elgsnes is mentioned, but i assume that its part of the mix up. After the war they placed 2 pairs of twin mounted 15 cm SKC/28 in the R636 bunkers, wha...

On the list i have Elgsnes is not present within any artillery group, so i got the idea this is the same battery as HKB 13/983 Grötavär II. Also i wonder wich atillery group HKB 13/983...

Re: Rödbergodden or Rödberghamn
Thank you Ole,
It is clear to me now. When i take a look at the photos, the bunkers appear to be built in German style, but in a way different.
I suppose that this fort didnt play any role in the Atlantikwall.

Rödbergodden or Rödberghamn
Hello,
I recieved photos from Dietl for our Atlantikwall website. But we cant figure out if Rödbergodden is the same battery as HKB 21/972 Rödberghamn, or a different battery.
Rödbergodden is aprox. 836m 346 degree north of Rödberghamn.
Can anyone help us to solve this ?
