Bunker EB 1 Evegnée

This is bunker EB 1 at an open field at the village of Evegnée and is part of a farm.

Bunker EB 1 is part of the sector Evegnée-Barchon (EB) of the 2nd line of defense for de city of Liège, la Position Fortifiée de Liège (PFL 2) and belongs to the forts of Evegnée and Barchon.

This is the last bunker of this sector that still exists. The other 7 bunkers were demolished when motorway E42 was constructed (there is a possibility that bunker EB 2-2 still exists). The bunker would have a 47 mm anti-tank cannon and a machingun.

When after the war the bunker were no longer in use for the defence of Belgium, the iron door and shutters were sold as scrap.
