GPX file with waypoints of fortifications?

Hi, new to the forum, sorry if I ask the obvious, is there any file area where you collect waypoints of known fortifications?

Coming to southern Norway this summer with my son on motorcycle and would like to visit some interesting places.

I can of course read all the individual posts and do my own waypoints, but maybe some of them are already available in files.

The POI-files are in TomTom (ov2) and Garmin (csv) format, but it's easy to convert them into gpx with POIEdit or a similar application.

NB: Be aware that this is very much a work in progress - far from complete with lot's of duplicate posistions and quite a few errors.
I'm currently working on a major revision, but until then, this should help you find more than enough locations to visit during your vacation...

Thank you very much! This really made my day.

All I need to do now is to install the csv-file in my garmin with POILoader and set the proximity alarm for a few km and drive along the cost, the alarm will probably sound all the time! PDT_Armataz_01_14
