A somewhat hidden bunker of the defensive line. You can enter it and look into the individual rooms. The thick, heavy metal doors are always impressive. This bunker is also very clean.

A somewhat larger bunker by the roadside. The gun turret is impressive, with bullet holes still clearly visible. This bunker, too, can be entered.
