Absolut!

it is nice to see the room under construction, which still exists today.
The stairs at the end can now also be further imagined.
is there any chance that the KUppel will be rebuilt?

Hi Lex,
Later in the war this big circular cupola was replaced/converted to a "fluwa tobruk" as we know them in Holland..
The modern viewpoint structure was built on top of this, so we wont know what is left, untill this post war viewpoint is removed :roll:

Maybe it would be nice to make this a topic with more drawing and pictures of FluWa's?

Came across a rather peculiar picture of a fluwa with half a cupola on top. Maybe it is a cupola that can be turned and they had a little bit protection against the rain this way?
