During ww2 the nazis built a lot in Norway, some of it was the railroad to Narvik that was planned to go all the way to Kirkenes. They also built stations here and there to protect their hold on Norway, one of these places is the bunkers in Tromsø. Placed in kaldslett, with one bunker with all the original stuff in it, but this one is only open during summer. I tried to find information online, but I found this task quite impossible. But we had to explore! 

If you want to see these for yourself they are part of a museum in Tromsø, the museum is called "Tromsø Forsvarsmuseum" and is accessible by bus to the bus stop called "Forsvarsmuseet" 

I realize i say "germans" instead of "nazies" and i do realize the important differences. If I made anyone uncomfortable I'm terribly sorry. In Tromsø, Harstad and other places in the north we were living quite close with them. In order to avoid a toxic day-to-day life people got along without agreeing. They knew they were not welcome, but they were still regarded as people. To find more information on both aspects google finnmark during ww2, and google the sinking of Tirpitz and how local people would row out in boats to prevent people from drowning, although it was a nazi vessel with nazies onboard. In Finnmark people were forced to evacuate by the norwegian goverment, but many would hide in caves and escape back, to fight the nazies out of Finnmark with a LOT of help from Russian military.
