And a next mystery.

The below depicted piece of concrete was found within a probable range of some 2.Ordn. site. It is quite characteristic, so maybe you remember sth similar from Denmark or Norway? Thanks.

A new picture has been uploaded in a topic a couple of pages further.

I have never seen anything similar do you have a drawing with measurements?

And the next one:

This photo was taken near the sea shore (cliff). It probably had something to do with the Torpedowaffenplatz (TWP) Gotenhafen-Hexengrund (Luftwaffe torpedo test site), which was placed several hundred meters into the sea, right in the neighbourhood of these foundations. There are second identical remains nearby (seen in the background). Was that some kind of a Peiler (bearing finder)?

Pls see also my another thread on an unidentified German gun emplacement.

SES - the easiest way is to... send a photo by mail :) Attaching pictures to this forum is somehow obstructed by the size limit (I guess 600 or 800 pix wide).

And, unfortunately, I do not have any drawings with measurements.

Thank you for your concern again :)

Sounds familiar!
Here is a R 622 at MKB Fjell, also with emplacement for WR on top!
Is this a much used configuration?
Hi Erik.
It is not usual in Denmark. We have 3 instances where radars have be situated on top of Regelbau buners. A Freya Flamme on a 622 in Ringelnatter, a Dreh Freya in the bettung of a L 470 in Ringelnatter and a FuMO 2 in a L 409 A at Hirsholmene.
