Wn113 Dortmund site overview

What to see

Located on a high ridge between Wissant and Cap Blanc Nez you can see the remains of Wn113 Dortmund, a defensive position with an unobstructed view of the coast.
It featured a large R612 casemate for a 7.5cm gun plus two open emplacements – each with their own garage – for field guns. The R612 is in good condition whereas the other buildings, including two storage bunkers are damaged and have become overgrown.
Located on private farmland, permission must be obtained before visiting.
