The German forces came to Hemnskjel in May 1941 and stayed to the end of the war. Fortifications were built and cannons mounted.
Hemnskjel was important in defending the seaway to Trondheim, and it had 12 coastal batteries under its command. "Artillerigruppe Trondheim West" was responsible for defending the stretch from Kristiansund to Ørlandet.

Two coastal forts were established on the island, with 600-800 men. In addition, there was a prisoner of war camp with about 100 Russian prisoners.This album is mainly from Hemnskjel South. (Hevnskjöl Sud). Today there are still visible parts of the different positions. And it's worth a stop if one are going to Hitra.
