Mont Robin (3)

This huge location can be found just east of Dieppe, near Pouville sur Mer.
When you follow the D75 you will see most of the bunkers lying in the hill.
We have separated this location in three parts:

Part one: Eastern side of the hill (coast).
Part two: Western side of the hill (central part).
Part three: 632 mg bunker with cupola.
Part One: Eastern side (coast)
The best way to approach this side is to follow the D75 trough Pouville sur Mer in the direction of Dieppe,  next to a tourist panorama platform are two bunkers located, almost completely covered with vegetation and we couldn't come near them.
On top of the hill, next to a former museum and a golf club is a place to park the car. On the terrain of the former museum lay two huge bunkers, a L479 and another bunker that we couldn't identified.
The museum is now closed and the owners don't want any visitors on there terrain. On the other side of the street is a flak emplacement with some personnel bunkers around it. Highlight here is the beautiful concrete camouflage on the outside of the ammunition bunker, 607, the inside has burned out completely. About 100m more inland, on the same hill as the other bunkers, is a nice intact 630 mg bunker with all his steel plates and a 621 personnel bunker.

Types:
2x 630 mg bunker.
1x 607 ammunition bunker.
1x 621 personnel bunker.
1x L479 night-fighter control bunker.
2x Vf. 2a personnel bunker.
1x Flak emplacement.
2x Vf. bunker.
2x Unknown.
Part two: Central part
The best way to enter this main part is to drive to the cemetery in Petit-Appeville, a small suburb of Dieppe.
From here you can enter the fields on the hill, on your right hand are a 630 mg bunker and a garage for a gun that looks like a Vf. 54a. From there you can walk to the top of the hill and we have found lots of mg bunkers, personnel bunkers and tobruks connected with nice trenches. On top of the hill is a nice radar bunker for a Mammut, L485,  around the radar bunker are several Flak emplacements with personnel bunkers. Behind the L485, on the other side of the fence lay a nice 622 personnel bunker. In one of the personnel bunkers, Vf. 2a, have we found a beautiful wall decoration. All the 630 mg bunkers have been stripped of there armoured parts but still they look impressive. One of the Vf. 2a served as a hospital, inside there is still a red cross and some red paint on the wall. The whole hill is covered with all kinds of bunkers and trenches, that makes this location very special and very interesting.
We were there on a beautiful day and that result in nice pictures and we had an excellent view over the hills and the coast, we have been walking here for about 4 hours but it was worth it. All the bunkers can be entered but some times it was very difficult because of all the vegetation.

Types:
1x L485 Mammut radar bunker.
6x 630 mg bunker.
1x 622 personnel bunker.
1x Vf. 54a garage for a gun.
6x Vf. 2a personnel bunker.
3x Flak emplacement.
1x Wellblechstand, personnel shelter.
3x tobruk.
2x Vf. Building.

Part three: 632 mg bunker with cupola.
This beautiful bunker can be found 500m to the north-west.
The best way to come near the bunker is to follow the D925 in the direction of Dieppe and then take on top of the hill the first road, Rue 39eme reg d'infantry, to the left into the housing estate. Follow this road and take the first dead end road to the left and from there you can follow a small path to the bunker.
The bunker is now used as an overflow storage for rainwater, the bunker has been filled with water several times so the inside is in a very poor condition.
The original ladder to the cupola is gone but somebody placed a new ladder, the cupola has three fire directions (dreischartenturm).

Type:
1x 632 mg bunker (dreischartenturm).
