Azeville Battery

The Azeville Battery is typical of the heavy gun emplacements that Hitler constructed to create the 'Atlantic Wall' thatb extended from the top of Norway to the bottom of France.
This Battery contained 4 heavy guns and a number of anti-aircraft guns.
The gun emplacements we  designed to look like Norman ruins or houses. Secrecy surrounded their construction in an attempt to conceal the knowledge of the guns from the French Resistance.
A large shell entered this emplacement, yet failed to explode. The shockwave created by the shell killed all 15 German soldiers in the room.
