Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Festung Norwegen (Fortress Norway) was the German term for the heavy defense and fortification system of Norway during the occupation of Norway by Nazi Germany in World War II. By some, including Reichskommissar Josef Terboven, it was thought that these fortifications would serve effectively as a last perimeter of defense of the Third Reich in the event of Allied victory on the continent.Considered an essential part of the Atlantic Wall in anticipation of an Allied invasion, the fortifications in Norway were primarily based around coastal artillery, but also included elements of anti-aircraft batteries, and battle tanks and infantry forces. There were as many as 400,000 German troops in Norway during the occupation, a large proportion dedicated to the defense of the Northern flank of the Atlantic wall.
