The copula has no shape of 20P7 or 35P8 Sechsschartenturm. It looks like 40P8. Was any cupola of that type installed at Aleth?

I don't know Ondrej , a other strange thing is that I am missing a Scharte on the picture ?? So maybe a 3-Schartenturm .

Hi Jos, the photo is blurrby, but mayby you are right and there is no "scharte" at the right side.

Nevertheless, it looks like the A1 resistance panzer - without ring at the bottom and with the armoured shaft. So I think it is not Aleth.

Very nice photo. This must be the 69P9 Dreischartenturm (in Regelbau 643) in Calais (Stp 75, Löwe). In the background is a part of Fort Risban.

Hello,

Given that the visible loopholes are above the steel mantel with the door...It wouldn't be a 3- but a 6-Schartenturm. In addition, I'm not sure if it is a trenppenscharte on the picure.

Best regards

Are you talking about the 643 of Stp Löwe?
