Bpt.88 Wn.51 H Battalion Headquarters.

In s'-Gravezande you can follow the main road in the direction of Hoek van Holland.
In the village is a large amount of bunkers build, you can't enter the bunkers because they are on private grounds.
One of the 502's that was build on this location was discovered after a house has been demolished, the bunker was in a beautiful condition but after a week or so, the bunker was ruined by vandals.
The text: "Villa Sorgenfrei" and "Schwere Maschine Gewehr Zug, Gruppe 1" are ruined, the instructions for the gasmask and the armoured doors were stolen.
The bunker is today hard to visit because a new housed has been constructed in front of the bunker.
All the other bunkers can be found around the houses and glasshouses, this location was the battalion headquarters, there is a 608 command-post and a large hospital, both bunkers are on private grounds and not free to visit.
