Bunker for balloon defences, in Wyprawa?

No it isn't

It is German ammo factory in Krzystkowice in Poland.It belonged to Dynamit-Aktien Gesellschaft vormals Alfred Nobel & Co.It is reported that except production of ammo also there has been tested new models of projectiles.
On the phots is seen a large 'bunker'-actualy a concrete tank-probably for chemicals used in production,but as always with WWII objects it is linket to Vrils(?!!!) and other UFO activity.I guess it is made because of both:it's unusual and beatiful shape.
It is not typical fortyfication object (as many of us is attached to) but if someone is interested in so-called urban exploring then it will be very interesting.This factory has it's own undiscovered underground part-major part behind military unit.

Here are some more photos to see:

Hello

Is it a sort of electrical safety schwitch ?? Maybe for something in connection with the "scharte" below ??

Safety schwitch for putting the light out when the "scharte" was opened ??

It is called a Federpuffer , and was used for the turttle-back gunshield of the
10,5 cm SK C/32 and 8,8 cm , on the Federpuffer the shield could rotate with the
gun in every angle and also adjust the pressure inside and outside the turret .
