Peilstand (measuring post) on the cliff edge.
There are two entrances, this from above down to the office level. And another at a lower level accessed from a trench.

A what looks like a tank shell has attempted to penetrate the cap, but has hardly done any damage. Probably the people inside, did not feel a thing.

The nose looking out. Now I have to say, it is dangerous to walk out on top. But YOU have the choice. Take the sensible one. Technically there is more bunker on the earth of the cliff and at the moment 2022. There is very little leaning out. So is it safe?

Plan of the Vf Peilstand . The nose looks as though it has thicker concrete and the rear wall. But the rest seems in thinner concrete. From R to L : Observation room & rangefinder. Connecting stairs to take you up into the observation. Computing room. Chart room/plotting room. Watch office. The rest crew, Officers, telephone/coms and maybe a kitchen of some kind. (My thoughts)

This room seems to be split in two with a brick wall. Windows around the rear and right walls, and a door to the left.

Computing room. I am guessing what each room is for and going on what other Peilstand and fire control posts have.

The way in and out of the room, no windows. The right door is the way out and up stairs to the outside ground level and left up into the nose or observation room.
