Hello 20P7,

Yes agree with Daniel. Could be on Schiphol.

Very nice couple of 857P7's. Last bunker is definately L13. How many of these were actually build in Holland?

Good question Tønnes! Someone will probably have an overview. Good subject for a small article.

Hi Jos and Arthur,

Agree maybe worth an thread or article itself. Just the ones in DK are worth that. Both L13 and Bauform 70/261 were build here.

Some with turret and some with just the concrete hood though prepared for the turret.

Attached overview I made almost 20 years ago in Danish though.

Hello
Thanks for new info and pictures about Bauform 70/L13 and 857P7. There is already an existing topic about this:
viewtopic.php?f=70&t=110272&hilit=857p7&start=60
The new info should be moved to there, because the 857P7 is not a tank turret.
Lars
