Bo 15 Bordeaux

Hello All

Looking for the right position of Bo 15 ( O Qu = Oberquartiermeister A.O.K. 1 ) , I can't find it on my map .
Some sources place this at Haut Brion but on my map there should be Bo 33 , who can help me to shed a
light on these locations .

Regards Jos

Hello Erwan

This map, on a other map the Bo 33 is much more to the inner town . But what is the exact location of Bo 15 ?

OK ... Thank you for this document i didn't see before today !
That document reminds me that the 608 bunker in actual Bo33 'cité universitaire" rue de Budos (feldkommandantur 529) is marked "Bo33/2" !!! so why this bunker nowadays demolished was number 2 so that there is no other bunker number 1 around !!???

Was number 1 in another site, perhaps in pessac ?

Hello Erwan

Bo 33 on my map could also be wrong , because according to this document Bo 15 should also be around Pessac.

Also this location has a water well, but the question is were exact is Bo 15 ??

Bonjour à tous

There were more than a dozen "castles" on Pessac in the 1940s...
About 20 years ago, I talked to an old public works contractor who remembered demolishing a big "blockhau"s with lots of rooms in a castle on Pessac in the 1950s, but which...?
No traces in the archives of the City of Pessac.

A priori not on Haut Brion. Also, about fifteen years ago, I met the manager of the estate (former officer) who showed me a cathedral LS, but who had no evidence of having demolished a big "blockhaus".

Case to be followed...

Hello gentlemen,
Thanks to Jean François, we know there was another bunker in the area ...
My opinion is that the 608 was not far away from the first bunker Tonnengewölbe ... so i found that ...
So it could the the 608 ! the size and scale correspond !
