 676 emplacement for 4,7 Pak

The drawing shown on the left is 180 degrees rotated from the bunker constructed at this location. The bunker carries registration number 5250, and at the back a tobruk is connected to it. The 676 is special because it is one of the few Regelbauten of the 600-series with walls thinner than 2 meters. The walls are about one and a half meter thick, the roof is two metres thick.

The picture on the left shows the front of the bunker.

The two picture above are showing some numbers. The number on the left is the registration-number. What kind of number it is on the right is not known.

We were told that this bunker is burried a year ago.


 

Walzkorpersperre

....

This roadblock is the best known remaining one of Europe. The number of remaining roadblocks is very low.


Tankwall

The picture on the left shows how the wall used to be. It is over 2 metres high and was strong enough to stop tanks. The shape of the wall and the hight made it very hard to pass for infantery.


Wet defense (panzergraben)

This is what is remaining after nature did his job for many years.
