Plonéour-Lanvern.
AOK 7, KVA C1, KV.Gr. Quimper, KVU.Gr. Plogastel St Germain, Qu 33.

This location can be found south/west of the village at the street called 'Estrevel-Poulou en du'. The bunkers nowadays lie between houses and are hard to reach. Ask for permission.

The bunkers, all 669 casemates for a fieldgun are part of the inland batteries that covered the bay and the important places such as the concrete factory at Treguennec. The northern 669 is only visible from the street, the southern one lies open and can be visited (with permission). The third one on the same private property, has still very nice firing instructions written on the wall (Schwenkungsbereich rechts = 600), which means the swerve of the gun. The last 669 in the middle, lies on another private property and is fully covered with bushes and trees.

Types:
4x 669 Embrasured emplacement for field gun (60º) without annexes.
