Orienteering in Ermelunden
“Find vej i Garderhøjfortet anno 1915” is a journey through the history of the Garderhøj fortress and the planned flood of Ermelunden during the 1. World War. There are 9 posts on the route and it is possible to start from both Garderhøjfort (Start A) and Ermelunden (Start B). The posts are marked on the card, that can be printed from this page.
Every post introduces a person from 1915. As you explore, you will among others meet the commander, the cartographer, the soldier and the nervous neighbour.
