Trou01 Berville sur Mer digue Rocher Godin

This was the first Wn of the Trouville Gruppe.

Taken from a plan on Facebook, I have drawn up my plan. One R612 casemate covering the lock gates with a bunker, Tobruk and a poss. 4.7cm Skoda casemate??. A water reservoir then another bunker, Tobruk and a second R612 under construction. A comprehensive trench system connected all the positions. Since WW2 the river Seine has been diverted and nothing remains.

This picture gives an idea where the Wn was and as far as I can work out it was after 1955 that he River Seine was re directed south to where it is now.

A WW1 designed 7.5cm field gun of Belgian (b) origin probably captured in 1940 and re used here.

7.5cm F.K.235 (b).

Wn Trou01 is about the same distance to the Pont de Normandie as it is the other side.
