War and Peace
These photos are from my visit to France in August, on the west side of France in the South of Brittany. The Quiberon peninsula where these photos were taken is littered with these gun placements.
They are from the second world war when France was occupied by Germany. The Germans had an assortment of large caliber canon amassed in the early days of the war to protect their U-Boats.
Some of these guns could send a 700 pound shell 21 miles!
The artwork on the bunkers makes them more attractive than they would otherwise be
