The Bergen Anti-Aircraft Fort was built during World War II as part of the city's defense against air raids. The fort is strategically placed to monitor and protect the area, but the cannon that was originally installed has been removed. This means that the fort today stands as a historical monument from the war years, and gives visitors an insight into the military history associated with Bergen.
The buildings and structures around the fort have been preserved, which provides an understanding of what it was like to be part of the military defense during the war. The fort is an example of the type of defenses that were built in Norway during this period, and it is part of the larger context of war history in the country. Visitors can explore the area and learn more about the fort's role and significance during World War II.
