Zeebrugge Coastal Gun Emplacement on a Concrete Mount with Shelter

German Gun Emplacement Looking out from the Mole Coast

Viewed from below in its shelter, a gun sits on its concrete mounting block. To the right, we can see steps leading up to the strongroom door entrance. The Mole off the Zeebrugge coast is located ahead.

This photograph was taken around 1918 around the Zeebrugge Raid.
