Flak Batterie Gabelsberg

Gabelsberg Flak Batterie

Heavy Flak Battery Gabelsberg is located at Saint Germain, overlooking Vazon Bay. The site was one of six such installations. Most works here were built to RFO standards. Following the war quarrying activity resumed and all 8.8 cm flak positions were destroyed. Today the only surviving remains fall on private land. Please do not visit without permission. The site can be seen from various angles without access. A visit to some bunkers were made prior to the sale of the land.

L414a

One of two of this very rare Luftwaffe casemate for 2cm Flak. The other is located at Wn. Perleberg. Each of the two are mirrored versions of each other, this featuring the Tobruk on the right side. Condition is decent but full of old rubbish.
