Casemate Peel-Raamstelling S (3a) 405
This casemate was built in the period 1939-1940. At this location an unpaved agricultural path ends at the canal. The casemate could deliver frontal fire on this path through the middle embrasure hole. The casemate is in good condition but is damaged at the front by machine gun fire. It is unlikely that this happened during May 1940.
