Musée batterie Todt is a museum housed in one of the four bunkers of the batterie Todt, a coastal battery built by the German Wehrmacht during World War II. The Todt batterie was located near the French village of Audinghen, on the Channel at Cap Gris-Nez. The batterie consisted of four guns with a caliber of 38 centimetres, which could fire on England. The museum is located in casemate 1, also known as Turm I. It contains an original cannon and a collection of objects, documents and photographs about the history of the Todt battery and the Atlantic Wall.

This battery, built not far from Cap Griz-Nez and facing England, formed a formidable ensemble. It fired rapid-fire and percussion shells up to a range of 42 kilometers. The Kriegsmarine had a strategic location at the time: Griz-Nez was 29 km from Dover, making the English coast easily accessible.
