Hemliga Fortet / Kustbatteri GE3 Furuskär

Här inne på Furuviksparkens område längst ut på en egen liten ö, den gamla bron över känns original, ligger det gamla och välbevarade KA batteriet GE3 som nu är ett museum. …

Häftigt att gå runt och titta hur soldaterna hade det . En bit historia som alla bör känna till. Roligt för hela familjen och man kan ta med hund. Akta så att ni er slår i huvet dock ..

Here in the Furuviksparken area at the far end on its own small island, the old bridge over it feels original, is the old and well-preserved KA battery GE3 which is now a museum. Was a barrage battalion together with 2 other separate batteries to the north to protect the entrance to Gävle. They have done a good job of keeping it in original condition and fresh so it is a very interesting place to visit. Quite a large facility underground with the first 2 pieces, in covered defenses, which are connected by a long corridor and there is also a sighting & measuring station in its own covered defenses as well as lodgings, dining room, kitchen, workshop and generator. There is also a 3rd piece which is separate, perhaps connected by a tunnel at one time, but it is unfortunately closed. On the island there are also a large number of artillery defenses and also a couple of smaller protective bunkers and an anti-aircraft position. The old mob storage is also still there. The only problem with visiting this place is that you have to pay admission to Furuviksparken, 329kr when I was here 2022 08 08, and also a parking fee if you probably come by car. So quite a high cost but definitely worth it I think if you are as interested as I am.
