Den Helder, Zanddijk.
WBN, VB Den Helder, Zanddijk, Lw. Nachrichten Anlage "Knickebein", Wn. 134 L, Bpt 45a.

At the coastal road, called the Zanddijk, in the dunes close to Foreestweg and more towards the Middenweg, lies the former Nachtrichten Anlage der Luftwaffe with a Knickebein antenna system.
The entrance from the road is closed for some years, but you can still see the "print" of the road towards the location. On the location lies the Machinenhaus that provided the energy for the installation. It is demolished and cleaned. We can only show you the empty place.
A Küver type 441 is situated at the other side of the cycling path in the dunes and is covered with sand.
Close to the Küver bunker the ring for the turning around Knickebein antenna is still visible.
