Hi Jos.

Nice pic.
Could it be a 676 without the outer protection system 770,1P4?

Thanks Jos

Okay. Where am I, and as a bonus what's the construction in the middle and what type of St-bunker is the pigtail attached to? 8-)

Woah, nice question.

You are at Stp. Habicht, Hjardemål. To my knowlegde the construction in the middle housed a generator for a Freya LZ radar. Based on the perspective, the bunker you are standing on should be the L 410.

I've never been there unfortunately, but I maped this strongpoint via aerial photos just a few weeks ago, that's the only reason I recognised it. Hope I'm not wrong. :P

Spot on Torsten!!!

I thought that would take a little while to crack. Good job! :D
I had the pleasure of going through the entire Lw.Stp. back in April.
It's still well worth a visit, though the green stuff is slowly taking over again!

You're up for the next question.

Hi,
Not completely spot on. The Stp. is correct, but the construction is the combined ops. bunker/generator building for a Freya Verbunkert, not a Freya LZ. And the radar was never mounted, it was overtaken by events 4 May 1945.

Alright, thanks for the correction. I wasn't entirely sure about it, because I got the information from a website.

Next question, where is this bunker located. And what type is it, of course.
