Westwallmuseum Sinz

This museum exists of a restored Westwall-bunker "Gruppenunterstand Regelbau 501". This bunker, No. 53, was build in 1940.

On the outside of the bunker are impacts of grenades visible. They were from the fights in this regio, when Sinz was almost totally destroyed.

The bunker is used as bunker for fights, air raid shelter for the civil population and after the war, a family whose house was destroyed lived in it.

For current visiting hours, please visit the website of the museum.
