The WWII Battery of Vigsø, part of the fortifications built during the Second World War, housed four 10.5 centimetre canons, an observations bunker for gunfire control, anti-aircraft defences, crew bunkers and machine-gun posts. In the position, 46 bunkers were built with a staff of 144 men.

Today som of the batter's bunkers lie desolate on the beach, while others will soon be swallowed up by the North Sea.
