WWII Atlantic Wall Open-Air Museum

WWII Atlantic Wall Open-Air Museum
Ostend, Belgium (BE)
More than sixty bunkers and trenches, looking exactly as sixty years ago!

In the dunes of the former estate of Prince Karel, a unique historical site of modern fortification has been preserved: sixty constructions dating from both World Wars, interconnected by two kilometers of trenches and galleries. This remarkable site has been extremely well preserved, as prince Karel systematically prevented every demolition attempt.
