Dutch Bunker Battery Cemetery Den Helder
The bunker depicted on the photograph is an additional ammunition storage room/workshop.
Established in 1939, the Cemetery battery was part of the defense of the Marine Harbor.
The battery consists of gun beds for three guns 15cm long 40 no.1 with ammunition magazines and associated crew shelters.
Originally the beds are outside the cemetery. After an extension, one arrangement has been placed within the cemetery, this arrangement is still present in its entirety, but partly covered.
