For me it's the Schnabelstand of Wn 225 in Boulogne harbor. Buildings in the back look the same.

Hello,

Is it just an impression I'm under or the shape of the 6-Schartenturm and its loopholes looks unusual ??

Really strange indeed. The 90P9 looks normal. Never seen this shape!

Strange pictures. The cupolas does not look like real 20P7 to me. Round embrasures, periscopes exactly between the embrasures (it should be closer to one side). Maybe the dummy cupolas of any practice bunker? Made of concrete and tiny sheets of iron (as like Döberitz bunkers)? However 90P9 looks normal, as Arthur said.

Also think it's a training ground, but with very early or prototype turrets.

Hello

If early, could it be the training model for the German Paras landing on Eben Emael??

Hello everyone

Back from a trip to Germany last week. Dropped by Döberitz, and it doesen't look like this is the correct site.
Seem to recall I have seen another photo of this type cupolas before, but can't find it right now.

@Jos. The bunker from your picture looks like the kind of pre-war bunkers build at the German islands like Borkum.

Sure looks like the same layout. Nice with yet another picture of these testbunkers.
Found the other ones from a previous thread here on AHF.
