Hmm... I haven't been out at the battery-location myself, but judging from all available photos (for example, those collected here: http://www.kystfort.com/forum/viewtopic ... 5&start=45 ) this doesn't seem like Kap Spatha to me.
I think the terrain should be more steep, but most important the battery should be located much higher above - and away from - the sea?

I'm not an expert on the guns, but I think it's strange that there's only one barrell showing unless the photographer is very lucky with his position?
There's also other differences with the gunshield compared to the surviving guns in Norway (photos from the gun-collection at Oscarsborg):

The surroundings on this one is certainly more similar to Kap Spatha, but I have no idea about the gun.

Could Andrzej picture be a Vickers 152/50 , the other gun could be a 305/17. Together with the Waffen SS Stug it could be Sardinia ??

Not a naval gun but a 8,8 cm Flak.

No difference between these types of 8,8 cm Flak guns (Flak 18, 36 or 37). But the KM tended to use its own Flak guns such as the 8,8 cm SK C/30 and C/31 and the 10,5 cm SK/C32.
