I can see that the maneuvering of the massive shells (only 280 mm!!) has been modified by the Germans with the rails snd I surmise that also the hoists to pull up the shells and the powder bags and it's cartridges has been modified as well! Nevertheless it is very interesting! I like it very much!
Everything you can see working on this video are originally from the German Battleship Gneisenau. Austrått fortress was build around the C-tower from the boat after picked apart and sent to Norway. Now the guntower rests on Lundahaugen in Ørland as a museum. Come and make a visite.
Gunnar Lian I will come because I am very often in Lund, Sweden helping my girlfriend with the big farm! My dream is to come up and visit this museum in the summer! Thanks for the advice...
