Underground museum carved into the west coast dunes at the abandoned Tirpitz Bunker from World War II. The Tirpitz Bunker was supposed to be a major coastal fortification for the German Wehrmacht, as part of the gargantuan Atlantic Wall project spanning the European Atlantic coast from Arctic Norway to Spain, but was not finished before the German capitulation. Experience the bunker's history, and other themes tied to the west coast of Jutland. The architecture of the museum from 2017 is an experience in itself.
Tirpitz Museum, also called Blåvand Bunker Museum, is a museum in Blåvand, on the coast of Jutland. It is built in an old bunker from which it got its name, and features exhibitions on the Atlantic Wall, the west coast of Denmark, and an amber collection.

The Fisheries and Maritime Museum is the largest institution of its kind in Denmark focusing on Danish fisheries and marine biology, the tidal wetlands (Wadden Sea), west Jutland coastal shipping and the North Sea offshore industries. So the theme of the museum can truly be said to be "people and the sea".
