    Casemate 3, Batterie Todt, also known as Turm III, is a bunker that was part of a coastal battery built by the German Wehrmacht during World War II. The battery was located near the French village of Audinghen, on the English Channel at Cap Gris-Nez. The battery consisted of four guns with a caliber of 38 centimeters, which could fire on England. The casemate 3 was largely destroyed by an ammunition explosion in the 1950s, which killed three French workers. Some remains of the bunker can still be seen, which have been overgrown by nature.

    The Todt Battery was a huge German installation for the defense of the Normandy coast during the Second World War, with several casemates and blockhouses distributed along the Channel and a little further inland.
