Thanks for your help, ludvig.

I suppose a Bofors design. Is this gun an original naval gun, reused later as coastal artillery ?

Hi ,
Yes the 15,2 cm M/98 was a Bofors naval gun with 56 x guns produced , later
saw sercice in the Swedish coast artillery . Single mounts for the Swedish coastal

My best guess would be a 194 MM Mle 1902 SUR AFFRUT Mle 1934. However my knowledge and reference material on French CD weapons is limited.

Yes, 194 mm Mle 1902 at Fort de l'Eve (St-Nazaire - France). The shield is missing. Therefore, the picture has probably being taken while the Germans were dismantling the battery in 1941.

What was the fate of these pieces of Fort de l'Eve ?
