A historic fort from the Cold War

Langelandsfortet was built in the 1950s as a key part of Denmark’s coastal defense. Its location was strategic:
From here, it was possible to monitor shipping traffic in the waters around the Baltic Sea, and during a time of global tension,
surveillance, preparedness, and communication became part of everyday life. Today, the fort is a museum where you can explore
the original areas—and get a sense of what it was like to be on the “front lines” of a major geopolitical conflict,
which also left its mark on Denmark.

The best part of the visit is that the experience appeals to many different types of guests: You can delve into the history in detail, or
take a more hands-on approach and spend time exploring the area, viewing the exhibits, and soaking up the atmosphere.

Visitors can experience, among other things:

• Original gun emplacements and bunkers
• Exhibitions on espionage, surveillance and preparedness during the Cold War
• Military equipment and vehicles in the outdoor area
• Stories about Denmark’s defense and the time when the world was divided into blocs

This makes the fort an exciting experience for history buffs and families with children alike – especially because there is
plenty to see and the area invites you to walk around at your own pace.

Practical information – how to plan your visit

From Skrøbelev Gods, the drive to Langelandsfortet typically takes about 35–40 minutes. This makes it ideal as a
half-day excursion—for example, before a leisurely afternoon at the manor or as a morning outing, where you’ll still have time to return to
