This place is simply amazing and should be on the list for anyone interested in WW2 or engineering. I like both so, for me, this is a fabulous place to visit. Firstly it’s really well laid out and managed. Really well. The paths are well marked and maintained. There are also excellent audio narrations at certain points which are certainly worth listening too. On the way to the main exhibit (a simply enormous WW2 bunker) there are lots of exhibits from artillery pieces to train carriages, bombs, Radar and even a submarine. And then there is the bunker itself which was built to be a V2 launch site but got bombed by the Allies so never actually was used. Half is in pristine condition and the other half is derelict and shows clearly the effect of the bombs. It is really really impressive. You can also go inside the pristine portion and see the scale of what was being built. This portion was meant to be an oxygen production site to be used as fuel for the V2. You should go. Just go.

What a place. and only a short hop from the Ferry at Calais. I was thoroughly amazed by this tour, not just because of the excellent and professional layout of the exhibits, and the time they clearly put into maintaining the exhibits, but also because they have gone to great lengths to ensure the 'human' story is being told. It's quite harrowing the story of the workers used during this period to construct such things as this bunker, but the team here have done a brilliant job ensuring that the story is being heard and acknowledged. The Bunker for the V2 rockets is just insane! I had no idea. I'm very interested in War history, and this blew me away. We toured all the way round the bunker and inside. For anyone interested in this period of history, the stories behind it's construction, how Britain's RAF combated the incoming rockets, and it's eventual destruction, you'll spend your 10 euros very wisely. Oh, very helpful motorcycle area outfront with a locker system to lock helmets away. So handy.

You have to visit the place to see and feel the enormous amount of work that went into the construction of the building. With all WW2 artifacts, information boards, audio and video clips you get a real feeling of the horror's of war. Hot and cold drinks available. Toilets

An incredible place, sends you shivers to realise the sheer operation and amount of destruction such rocket installation had done. Definitely a must visit place for anyone with interests in WWII

Went many years ago and there has been a lot of work done with the audiovisual setup. Very informative. Well worth the visit.

Surprising museum, you start outside with some information about the start of World War 2. There was a deportation train where you could imagine how it was during the war. After a walk in the museum garden, you come across a giant bunker! It looks abandoned (little bit urbex) but you can visit the inside of the bunker where an old car is hiding. There is a V2 diplay in the bunker (still not sure if it is a 2D or 3D rocket) and a short documentary in a language by choice. Outside the bunker is a V1 and V2 display. It's impressive to see. I would recommend this museum (and the shop too!). The people who work here are doing their best at English:)

German V2 rocket base, this is one of the best museum if have done! This property is in private hands, cool interactive museum! The dark past makes for a grim atmosphere! Pictures can not make u feel this place, the bunker is immense! Must visit!

The biggest bunker I’ve ever seen. The museum is very interesting, all information is available in multiple languages and there is a lot to see! A must see and worth a detour.

Impressive building. I've been there 5 or 6 times now, generally on the way back to Calais and it never fails to inspire awe when you turn a corner after walking through the woods and it just confronts you.Rest of the museum is good as well with lots of info. If you are on a motorbike then they also have a parking area for the bikes with lockers to put your crash helmet / backpacks in! Never seen that at a museum, so very bike friendly (but then France generally is)! You could do the site in about an hour but if you want to read the boards and take in the atmosphere then 1.5 to 2 hours would be better. Highly recommended.

A really interesting place. Not especially heavily advertised but it's definitely worth visiting. The bunker is an engineering feat in itself and it has an interesting and often chilling story to tell. V1 and V2 rocket exhibits on site too. There's an audio tour in several languages. You walk around the site but it's not too strenuous. Highly recommended

A must see. From this site many V1 and V2 bombs were launched and hit many targets in Britain. Awful history of prison workers and concentration camps but we must learn and acknowledge history even if its not palatable to us. Inside the structure was incredible. The only negative is that although it's all wheelchair accessible the gravel pathways through the site are not easy for disabled/mobility scooters.

Astounding concrete building depicting how Germany developed rocket wraponry, v1 and v2 and the British worked out how to destroy it using the 6.5t tallboy bomb dropped by Lancaster... very impressive tour and location.

A 'must do' experience. Yes it's about the V1 and V2 rockets but it is also a 'memorial' to all of the slave Labour that the Nazis used. Stepping back in time, you follow in the footsteps of the prisoners, from their deportation through to their work on the base. Thoroughly recommended.

Wow! So much more than I expected. Camped nearby loads of times, but this was our first visit. Reasonably priced(especially with the discount from chateau du gandspette) & very worthwhile.

Very impressive and informative. Didn't expect something this big! Nice that we could take our dog with us

It was closed for the season when I visited but I bet it's amazing hence the 5 stars .The car park needs some work though Lots of pot holes

Total überwältigend was dort gebaut wurde. Wenn auch der Anlass in meinen Augen nicht hätte sein müssen,doch die Geschichte kann man leider nicht mehr ändern . Ich war sehr ergriffen 😔

(Translated by Google) Beautiful open air museum. Interesting to see how close Hitler was to developing missiles to attack England. Monumental bunker that was bombed by the English on August 28, 43. (Original) Prachtig openlucht museum. Interessant om te beleven hoe dicht Hitler was bij het ontwikkelen van raketten om Engeland aan te vallen.

(Translated by Google) Very nicely made open air museum with many details about the history of this German bunker from the Second World War. The information is accurate and well presented. The bunker itself is impressive. The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. If you are in the corner of France, you should stop here. (Original) Sehr schön gemachtes Open Air Museum mit vielen Details zur Geschichte dieses Bunkers der deutschen aus dem zweiten Weltkrieg. Die Informationen sind akkurat und gut dargestellt.

(Translated by Google) Mega blockhouse, visit mainly outdoors. Too bad he doesn't have more interior room to discover. Impressive !!! (Original) Méga blockhaus, visite essentiellement en extérieur. Dommage qu'il n'a pas plus pièce intérieur à découvrir. Impressionnant !!!

Flipping a coin we visited here over La Coupole. The building is rather extraordinary and the exhibition talks through the construction of the site and development and production of the V2 missiles. The site is mostly outdoors so it's best visited in pleasant weather.

(Translated by Google) Super maintained place !!!! Precise audio guide explanations. thank you so much (Original) Endroit super entretenu !!!! Explications ar guide audio precises. Merci beaucoup

Fascinating, engaging. The whole family loved the experience. Very well organised. You can visit at your own pace. Thoroughly recommended. 🚀

Steeped in history and fascinating for anyone interested in World War machines and motors. The Blockhaus itself is spooky as but some great footage to watch to explain why and how it was built.

Price per person was €11 THIS IS A MUST VISIT IF YOU LOVE WW2 HISTORY! My visit : Visiting this Super Blockhaus was amazing! You walk up the hill to get to the blockhaus. The walk had some pretty awesome war time artifacts. You walk around the whole bunker before you go inside. The inside of the super blockhaus has a couple rooms… the rooms though were insanely massive and spacious. In the rooms it has some Information on the walls and TV screens that also display information. Outside/surrounding area : has a dozen of artilery guns and anti tank guns. There are also some trucks and some cool WW2 naval items and a mini submarine. There is also a train wagon to sadly simulate how the train ride was to the concentration camps. There are both V2 and V1 replicas outside. Blockhaus Facts : - Its main purpose was to store fire V2 ballistic missiles towards England. - The bunker could have stored 100 V2s inside (if it was fully completed). - was only %50 completed due to being heavily bombed in 1943-44, damage can be seen on and around the bunker. - A “Disney” bunker busting bomb was found lodged in the roof of the bunker. - A tallboy bomb blew up outside the bunker which created an artificial pond.

This has to be seen in person to be appreciated. An important story of a certain totalitarian WW2 government (which Google evidently won't let me namef) and its forced labour policies and how close WW2 came to being even worse. And Google, I understand not glorifying groups like that, but naming them in this context is is just the historical record.

Very nice place to visit. It’s very interesting. I’d recommend.

If you like technical history , you must go. It is incridlbe. What a crazy idea at that age.

The shear scale of the site and the construction works is shocking. Lots of information on the V1 and V2 tickets with numerous audio presentations.

During my D-Day tour I visited the blockhause bunker. And I have just one word to describe this bunker: HUGE. From the parking you only can see trees. The entrances is a bit weird. It is a small store with some items you can buy. Then you will walk in the forest an you can see some trucks and artillery pieces. But then you walk around a corner and you will see one of the biggest bunker of ww2 that you will ever see. The bunker itself is just so interesting that it is hard to explain. You can see the battle damage of the air raids that suppose to destroy the bunker. Inside you can not visit all the part of the bunker this is a downside. Look good at the movies that are in the bunker. Only this way you will know how this bunker should have worked when it was finished. The parking is free and the tickets were easonably priced. Go to see this concrete giant.

(Translated by Google) I found this visit really great! You can find some very beautiful pieces there, the blockhouse is impressive, you are close to it. Unfortunately, we cannot visit all of the damaged blockhouse. I also find that a guide is missing to better understand the operation of the blockhouse and to have some little anecdotes! I really recommend visiting this museum. (Original) J'ai trouvé cette visite vraiment top ! On peut y trouver de très belles pièces, le blockhaus est impressionnant, on est petit à côté. Malheureusement on ne peut pas visiter tous la blockhaus qui a été endommagé. Je trouve qu'il manque également un guide pour mieux comprendre le fonctionnement du blockhaus et y avoir quelques petites anecdotes ! Je recommande vraiment la visite de ce musée.

Impressive place, the tour was a bit basic though

Very interesting place!

Impressive blockhouse, some good Ww2 artifacts

Impressive remainder of one of the darkest chapters of 20th century history. Very informative, interactive displays and presentations.

Some places are just historic. This old World War 2 concrete bunker is an interesting relic to the past. It was used to house V2 rockets but was never fully operational. There are a few exhibits like mortars and old cars to see too. There is not loads to do and €35 for a family ticket was a bit expensive for what’s there. We stayed about 40 minutes. There is good parking and parking for Motorhomes.

Superb less we dont forget

Many go only to 'La coupole' and forget this mastodont at the end. Ths incredible location is a must see if you want to know on V2 missiles.

The bunker is very impressive, even though I was expecting a big bunker. We had to take a trip with the guide (something we didn't want) who wasn't able to explain some things in English, let alone Dutch, too bad! We were lucky to see a change to sneak away from the group to take our own tour. We enjoyed our visit very much.

formidable - well worth the time.

(Translated by Google) What good is a memorial stone or a grave in other places? You are no longer there; that is what stands out. The emptiness a person leaves behind writes volumes. The problem is everywhere, many have died for false beliefs; some had no choice but to come before the firing squad; others died because of the persistent hellish pace of work. Others lost their lives by their faith. Why? (Original) Wat heb je aan een gedenksteen of een graf in andere oorden? Je bent er niet meer; dat is wat opvalt. De leegte die een persoon achterlaat schrijft boekdelen. Het euvel zit overal, velen zijn gestorven voor verkeerde overtuigingen; sommigen hadden geen andere keuze of ze kwamen voor het vuurpeloton; anderen stierven omwille het aanhoudende helse werktempo. Anderen lieten hun leven door hun geloof. Waarom?
