Thank you, again, Pavel. However both bunkers not look exactly the same The first one appears larger and has a side door

There were five main anti-infantry versions of LO 1937 (plus three anti-tank versions for field ATG) with numerous subvariants. Some 9000 of these objects were built (plus some 850 of older type 1936).

That entrance area is actually on the rear, MG is on right side and front is covered by that stones - it still lacks also some soil over that stones - white facade shows its intended reach.

Here are some projections of several subvariants of versions A and B:

Anyway if you have more photos of Czechoslovak fortifications to question you can post them here:

From the look of the camouflage pattern on the turret and the terrain,my guess is that the location is somewhere in either Fortified Sector Faulquemont or Sarre.

The two photos water marked "fotoshop44" were taken of a turret located inside a strong point. In the bottom photo you can see a trench forward of the turret.

Thank you, again, Pavel. As you can see I have no idea of ​​fortifications

On the other hand, another image from Ebay. Accoding to photocaption, french bunker cupola, but I do not know if it is correct

The photo is of a GFM (observation and machine gun) cupola of a French casemate located on the bank of the Rhine River near Strasbourg.
