Batteri Arholma

Fans of military history can tour this formerly top-secret Cold War–era base, complete with cannons aimed at sea and underground living space for 340 men. Information in English may be a little sparse, but if you book ahead you can usually arrange an English tour. The views are amazing, whether you opt to delve further or not.
