Thanks! LOVED the intro. That German WW2battery was massive. Couldn't believe all of the brickwork. Excellent workmanship. It would have been something to see in it's original form. It's a good thing you had your trusty flashlights with you. A shame it was flooded though. Yes, most likely the locals took some of the magnificent brickwork and put it to good use. What a view, it was ideally situated. You can be sure the Germans knew what they were doing, we just may never know the real story behind it. Thank you HH and EE. Really found that site intriguing. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year EE, HH, and BBG. Also, to all of the WW2 History Hunter viewers and supporters from around the world. Hopefully, the war between Russia and Ukraine will finally come to a stop. My thoughts are with the soldiers, family, civilians on both sides. Take care everyone.
Places like this is totally amazing to explore and find and we loved it. Words are not enough to thank YOU Laura for all you do for us. Your kindness is greatly appreciated and we wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR from us.
Spot on there Laura!!🙂🇬🇧
Thanks! Well done my friend. I wish you EE and BBG a Merry Christmas and a Safe and Happy New Year. Same to all the supporters who enjoy this channel.
Wow Allen that is so kind of you and will come in very handy out there finding more history to share. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from us.
Thanks again for another great day out HH and EE. I was particularly fascinated by the bullet holes and shrapnel marks at the entrance where the allies attacked what was probably a defunct facility - all that construction and it was beaten by a few grenades and small-arms - brilliant!
Thanks for being here :)
So awesome to see this huge structure with all the amazing workmanship! And to top it all we get to see the view from the torpedo tube mount. Germany wanted to prepare for every eventuality along the Atlantic wall and this is another great example! Thank you HH and EE for this wonderful adventure.
Couldn't agree more Beverley and thanks my friend.
As I look at the chambers that were hollowed out of the rock I am just once again amazed at the amount of labor and effort it took just to create the chambers, much less then brick them, concrete the floors and create the stairs! It must have cost a small fortune to build this stuff! I wonder what they did with all the rock they removed? They needed miners to blast out the rock to create the chambers. WOW! Thanks for taking us through this facility and providing the pictures of it in action during the war. Another EE and HH special episode! Stay safe and stay well!
So much work involved and when one is there one can fully understand the dimensions and all the gear that must have been there. i think the rock could be spread out around the area and even dumped into the sea. Great explore and thanks so much Donald for your great support and we wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from us.
Thank you for sharing with our young ones they will not know the direction not to go ,without history.History is a great learning tool !!!! Thank you so much HH and EE !History is great ! That’s an amazing place ! Be careful Be safe ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Well said and we wish you a Happy Holidays Mark :)
Amazing torpedo battery, so cool to see it from the inside. Incredible amount of work in such a remote location
Couldn't agree more and loved to find that :) Thanks.
Absolutely amazing! thank you for showing us this installation.
Our pleasure!
That place is amazing! Such a huge installation,those stairs were scary. I love how you explain the goings on in these awesome places and structures you both take us to. The architecture of this was simply beautiful and terrifying at the same time. Thank you both for sharing this wonderful place. 💖💯
Appreciated Julie and Happy Holidays :)
You were right HH, that German Torpedo Battery was massive. The local trades and soldiers had their work cut out for them. Brickwork and layout was indeed impressive. The view inside was breathtaking over the strait. Enjoyed your running commentary and sense of humour EE. You know your stuff 😏. Thanks for taking us inside. Stay safe & keep smiling.
Agree what a incredible location and so glad we could share that with you.
I wonder what your ROVA would find in the water where they launched torpedoes?
What an amazing place. You never fail to provide fantastic discoveries. Thank you.
We are returning later for more here :) Thanks.
@@WW2HistoryHunter excellent. Probably a four parter. I wonder if some of the construction started on opening for the gun first? They could have made a temporary or floating dock. And had the materials brought in from the seaside. They could have also worked from the land side at the same time and met up.
The Germans kept precise records. Is there a timeframe for records being released? (Like after 70 or 75 years they become public?)😀😀
Well done my friend. The door at timestamp 7:28 is a floor cover from above. You will find they used that overhead rail to lower torpedoes down for storage or setup up for the launcher. Well done both of you on this site.
Good ot know and thanks William. Happy Holidays :)
Can't believe how big it was really something else thank you and eagle eyes for going to these great places off history.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for being here Jacob :)
That has to be one of your best explorations yet, the battle damage, those steps looked like something from the midevil era, Gothic, spooky. Be careful out there stay safe.
yes a fantastic place William and loved to find that.
@@WW2HistoryHunter Now I remember what I wanted to ask, have you ever seen the movies Four Jill's In A Jeep and Saints And Soldiers? Both true fact based stories, the 1st all the cast portrayed themselves, the other, taken from the memoirs of the Malmady Massacre
Unbelievable room carved from solid rock. This is one of your best locations & that torpedo tube was amazing how they shot them out of the tube. Outstanding video.
Yes Joe , this is a pretty amazing place and loved to find and share it. Merry Christmas my friend.
TheseGerman structures are unbelievable. The work that it took to build these is unthinkable. Thank you for sharing these wonderful sites. Now it seems such a waste of resources. Happy holidays! And thank you as always, for sharing your discoveries!
Our pleasure and Happy Holidays Mary :)
Truly amazing construction and without you guys we would never have known
Thank you David appreciate you being here :)
What a great conclusion to the explore, that brickwork lining looked fantastic. Have a great Christmas team 👍🏻
Happy holidays Colin and thanks.
Absolutely crazy amount of work went into that place. Great explore and what a view! Thanks for bringing us along
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow ! I thought I’d seen it all ! Great to see a new ww2 installation, thank you so much 👏🏻😊😊😊
Thanks so much Craig :)
That was quite impressive to see, every time I see the German installments I'm blown away by how much bunkers and things like this they did, it's insane!
Thanks for doing this!
Glad you enjoyed it
Amazing place, 👏 well found mateys 😃👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Such remarkable craftsmanship to build that site! Was fascinating seeing all of what you showed us at the site. Thanks for taking us with you!
Appreciated and greetings from us.
Wow, I've watched for years and have never seen a site like this. I did not realize torpedoes were fired from land. Excellent history hunting. Merry Christmas you two.
I agree very special place to look into. Merry Christmas from us :)
And if a ship was hit they might have assumed there was an undetected submarine.
You didn't show us the firing position., did you run out of battery??
That is some very impressive brickwork you found. To think that the whole underground area was lined like that. The amount of time, effort, and manhours involved is incredible. That whole torpedo bunker system is just amazingly stunning. Would love to have seen it before the locals removed all the steelwork and bricks. That would have been an incredible sight. I think the mindset of the designers, and builders, of these places was typical of the time. Without the benefit of the satellites, radar, sonar, drones, etc. that we use nowadays, they just had to defend everywhere at once, ignoring the fact such places may never see action. The whole Atlantic Wall project is just mind blowing in its complexity, and scale. Thank you for sharing this incredibly unique place with us. Cheers to you all! Stay safe!
Yes , just that , everywhere at once. Impressive build indeed. Thanks Peter and Merry Christmas from us to you :)
That was well worth waiting for. Amazing place! Noticed you didn't go into the control bunker/area above . Would loved to have seen that and the views. Was also thinking how it would be neat to make a house within there; with a huge window where the torpedo exit is. A lot of work, but the views afterwards. Too bad there wasn't a way to see what was above the base. Thanks for streaming this. Looking for our next adventure. Hello to EE. Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS
yes we ran out of battery in the camera so could not record that but we are returning later for something else we discovered in the area. Thanks Colleen and Merry X-mas from us.
Merry Christmas all and a happy new year
Happy holidays!
What an enormous, fascinating construction, HH and EE. The view from the torpedo mounting is incredible. I think Germany was preparing for any contingencies, protecting themselves in any way possible. A wonderful explore!❤️
Glad you enjoyed it Cynthia and Merry Christmas from us :)
As you said my friend it was fascinating to see such a setup where torpedoes were fired from the bunker to keep the area as free from any enemy as possible. As always your research made the adventure all that much educational for me.. Be safe, careful and healthy my friends and to all 3 of you a MERRY CHRISTMAS and Happy New Year and I'll extend that to all the followers....
Yepp a great place to be and explore. Thanks Ted and Merry Christmas from us.
Wow - yet another vast construction on the Atlantic Wall! Many thanks to you, Eagle Eyes and Bunker Buster Girl for the wonderful videos which you have produced over the past year. I really appreciate the research, the time and the effort which you put into your travels around Europe to document these WW2 locations, some of which have not been visited since the end of that conflict. Have a good and restful Christmas and a Happy New Year - and see you in the next video!
We thank you Sue for taking time to be here with us. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year.
Amazing, one of your most spectacular finds! Many thanks for the work you put in to bring us these
Glad you like them!
That was truly an amazing site. I noticed the bullet holes along the door frame at 6:05 as you were entering, and my first thought was that there must have been a gun fight between the allies who overran this position and the German troops who were defending it. I'm glad that you pointed them out as you were leaving. Much thanks to you and EE for your efforts, and I want to mention that EE's drone skills in the previous video were quite impressive! Thanks for sharing.
We have read that the location was strafed by allies aircraft several times during the war. Impressive place and loved to find and share that with you my friend. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from us.
@@WW2HistoryHunter I was actually referring to the bullet holes around the door frame *inside* the tunnel, as seen at around 6:05 in your video. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours as well.
Absolutely incredible facility. Can only imagine the amount of effort required to build it and what it was like equipped. I presume the door you saw by the staircase was the flor hatch from up above where equipment / torpedos were lowered down into the bunker. Great stuff HH and EE.
Well that it could be. Such a incredible structure and loved to share that with you my friend. Thanks and greetings from us.
WW2HH & EE . time after time you guys find amazing remnants from WW2 locations.
No other history channel comes close to your content. I hope you and Eagle Eyes enjoy your festive holidays .
Thank you my friend and happy holidays from us.
Love the workmanship that goes into these places,👍🏻👍🏻👏👏🇬🇧
Great place to explore and thanks Anthony.
You were so right, this was worth waiting for, and amazing feat of construction, and so well concealed, and also a total waste of time and Money, as you say, the Allies just ignored that part of the occupied coastline. I would guess that the thin high vaulted corridor was the way to drop the torpedoes down to the storage area. Thank you for sharing this with us all. I am on duty for the next few days, so I would like to take this opportunity to wish you, EE and BBG a very peaceful and merry Christmas, and a happy and joyful New year. I wonder what amazing things you have in store for us in 2023. Stay safe and well my fiends, and warmest regards from the UK. Barry
WE thank you for your fantastic support Barry and we send a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from us to you. Be safe.
What a spectacular view of the ocean. Thanks👍✌❤😎
It really is Robert and appreciated :)
Thanks so much for another great video! Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Merry Christmas Alexander and greetings from us.
HH and EE you’ve done it again!! Really awesome video!
Thanks again!
Another fantastic video, thank you for your great work in finding and filming this.
Thanks William :)
Wow amazing place guys thank you for the great video and giving fascinating details
Our pleasure!
Wow another spectacular bunker system along the Atlantic wall can't wait to see the rest of this bunker. Keep uo all the amazing work you do history hunter and Eli you amzing.
Thank you William :)
Thank you for all you and Eagle Eye do
Thank you Tom for that and greetings from us :)
Great find, as you said such a waste of resources. Was a unbelievable defensive set up but never used,so crazy. Merry Christmas
Happy holidays!
Very cool , would be a treat to see one of those leave the tube , I imagine it would be similar to a gun boat launch. These videos are the best , always a treat to see you post. Big shout out to EE !!!
Appreciated very much Dave and more to come :)
Absolutely spectacular, stunning, hugely impressive construction 😯
Massive amount of work that would have gone into building that place.
Thank you for sharing ❤️
Keep up the excellent work.
Merry Christmas/Krampus to you History Hunter, Eagle Eyes and Bunker Buster Girl🙏❤️
Thank you very much and Merry Christmas and Happy holidays from us Casey :)
Another outstanding video and presentation of the WW2 History Hunter team hard at work.
Merry Christmas to the WW2 History Hunter family.
You being here is greatly appreciated my friend Happy Holidays :)
Definitely agree with you there. As much as we love the history, we certainly don't want it repeated. Another amazing video. Thank you, guys. :)
Such a great place and thanks for your great support my friend :)
This is why I love your channel. You take us to such remote locations. They are definitely more interesting than ones you would see in Normandy etc. I hope you, EE and BBG have a great Christmas and a very happy New Year. Can't wait to see what next year brings.
Glad you like them and a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year john :)
Wow you guys! Can’t wait for more!
Thank you for that and greetings from us.
Superbly done
Thanks Thomas.
Truly amazing Thank you and E E and Merry Christmas. 👍❤️🇺🇸
Happy holidays!
Just an incredible video (s) I love watching your videos.Happy Christmas
That is so kind of you my friend and will come in very handy in future explore so we can share more with you :) Thank you and Merry Christmas from us and be safe out there :)
Incredible find. Wow.
Thanks for watching.
I still think it's special that you call the soldiers by their name.
It is as if you know them, but you do know them from their environment and accommodation.
Never walk into a bunker without a good flashlight, before you know it you will have an accident.
Beautiful vlog about the torpedo battery, still able to view the side on the sea.
yes the connection of the soldiers can be very close being at such place. Loved it and thanks Oma and Happy Holidays :)
Wow I wonder the cost of building this Site? Great location guys!! Nice Work!!
Good question and what a place. Thanks for being here.
Great I will be looking for it. These places are really amazing after all these years
Merry Christmas to you and egale eyes and bunker girl. Hope you have a great time at Christmas and every one is safe
Happy holidays!
❤you guys and what you do your amazing 👏thanks for sharing your amazing story’s and places that you visit are really 😎 just like this video
Our pleasure and thanks Matthew :)
What a location GREAT JOB HH AND EE , did you find a fire control location if so was you able to enter it , this has to be a top 10 location!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is for sure a special place Donald and loved to share that with you. Happy Holidays.
Many thanks, for your epic adventures throughout the year gentleman, thanks eagle eyes 👀 you help.
Thank you so much Jonathan and Happy Holidays.
Once again, an amazing explore. Both of you have excellent camera skills, so many channels do not linger on interesting features long enough to really take them in, your work allows us to really get a handle on the locations. I was a little disappointed not to see the fire-control area, unless of course you plan to show that in another video, but what we did get to see was mind blowing. Have a good christmas with your family and see you next year, can't wait.
we ran out of battery in the camera but will return in the future for something else we discovered in the area. Thanks my friend.
Sorry for dropping in so late. Merry Christmas EE, BBG and HH. Thank you for the educational videos you released this year. Stay safe and we look forward to your future content.
Appreciated and Merry Christmas from us :)
Your videos are always fascinating and well researched. Thanks to you and EE for taking us on these amazing journeys. Merry Christmas and looking forward to a New Year full of history hunting adventures with a WWII time frame.
Thank you my friend :)
That's awesome that torpedo spot could be good for underwater exploring who knows u could find a dud torpedo or parts
You never know and we shall look into this location more later. Thanks Roger.
brilliant guys thanks from 🇬🇧👌
Thank you Paul :)
Wow that was an amazing place !!!
How do you decide which places to go to ? They must be spaced out for miles from each other .
The Germans certainly were masters of engineering and amazing speed of development building all these huge amount of fortresses .
Hey guys have a brilliant family Christmas and a relax and look after yourselves .
I hope you all have a great festive time and hope eagle eyes is on the mend he's such a great young man .
Especially if he has bought you a nice present lol.
All the best guys
We do tons of research and then go out and find these and some we just are luckt coming across. Thanks Mark :)
Been waiting for this one ! 🦅👀👍
Hope you enjoyed it!
Absolutely fantastic. Wish to one day be able to hunt for history with you.
Thanks for watching.
great torpedo battery amazing
Loved to find that and share that :)
Awesome show thank you 😊
Glad you enjoyed it
As an old fogey, I ask myself what I would have done if I had been a soldier in such a dangerous position. My answer now is far different than it would have been 50 years or so ago when I was young and gullible.
There you go and thank you Gene for sharing and fro being here :)
I learned something new from this video i did not know you could fire a torpedo from a land base that place was cool agreat view from the launch position
Good to read and thanks my friend :)
Fantastic part 2 thanks for taking us there
Thanks Gary :)
Fascinating place! Thank you for sharing your hard work and discoveries. Keep up the awesome content! 👌💪
Thank you! Will do!
Thanks!
Thank you for your kindness Jim and Happy Holidays from us :)
What a place that is! Thanks for your hard work
Agree Alfred , what a great place that is. Thanks and more to come :)
Excellent, well worth the wait for part two. I wanted to say frohe Weihnachten to you and your family and as always " gute Jagd " I hope I spelled it correctly, lol
Glad you enjoyed it and Merry Christmas from us :)
Fantastic feature. Well done both of you 👍👍
Thanks 👍
Bowza..been waitingfor this
All our pleasure and thanks for being here .)
Brilliant thanks
Very welcome
Knocked it out of the park this time team 👍
Thank you Dominic :)
Watching these videos like this remind me of when I used to play Wolfenstein 3D, back in the 90's
Appreciate you watching.
Fantastic!
Many thanks!
I can’t help but think, some of these bunkers with our newer technologies could be converted into homes to rent out for the landowners! If I owned property with some of these bunkers, I would at least convert one of them into a home for myself!
yes i agree and a friend of mine has actually integrated hi house into one bunker and that is such a incredible place to be in :) Thanks Shaun.
@@WW2HistoryHunter Have you done a video on that, If not and your friend allows I think that would be a good video
@@ThatOkguy84 No he is not interested in that and i have to respect that :)
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY USA everyone and MERRY CHRISTMAS and Happy New Year everyone
Happy holidays Earl and love to have you here my friend :)
Thank you my friend but no thank you I don't travel any more since I am finally found a house to live in
👍😁😁good one!!!
Thanks Tommy :)
G'day guys. Merry Christmas 🎄🌲 and have a safe and happy Christmas
Thanks Stephen and Merry Christmas from us :)
That's an awesome video
Thanks Andrew :)
Great info on an unknown subject to me the torpedo installations are alot simpler than the gun batteries to build and less volnerable to air attack! very interesting
Yes such interesting place that is and so glad we could share that :)
I love the brick work what a great location
Thanks 👍
I cut not believe how well this fortress was bil. It's so incredibly if I have not see. I will not believe. Thanks you very much for your video.
Appreciated Alexandro :)
Merry Christmas HH to you and your amazing family.
Merry Christmas Bob from us :)
Good afternoon brother and eagle eye and everyone else
Hello Earl and greetings from us.
I thought the Undisturbed bunker find a couple videos ago was the best.
This one tops that.
Great place and thanks for being here :)
What a place! Did you find an engineering area for generators and compressors? Am I correct in my thinking that they were pushed from the tubes by compressed air?
we do think we know where that was and i think it was compressed air that launched them. Thanks William.
As they say, hindsight is always 20/20.
Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the video HH and EE, this place is massive and very eerie. The best position for size and work load to be build, it was massive just for one torpedo launcher. I wonder what else went on here 🤔. Totally enjoyed the 2 episodes on this iconic place!!😎💥💥💥💥🇬🇧🇺🇦
IT is such a great place and loving it my friend. Thanks and greetings from us.
Maybe visit the U-2540 someday in Bremerhaven
You never know :)
An amazing place and view merry Christmas from England too you and eagle eyes 👀 and bunker buster girl
Thank you Karl :)
What an awesome view wow wow wow
It really is Carol and we love that place. Thanks :)
