Point du Lizay.
AOK 1, KVA D, KVU Süd, Kv.Gr. Süd Ile de Ré, M.K.B. Kitty, Ro 431.

This battery is west of Portes-en- Ré. Follow the D.101 towards Portes-en- Ré and take the first turn to the left, just before you enter the village. Follow the road to the right and you will get to the beach and the parking-place. The bunkers are situated 100m to the right along the path and on top of the dunes.

The battery was completed at the end of 1942 with 7,5cm guns. A year later in 1943 the whole battery was transferred to Portes-en- Ré, renamed as M.K.B. Lola.
Today you will only find some bunkers for ammunition and other things. Only one emplacement is still visible and at the far end of the battery remains an emplacement for a 60cm searchlight.

Types:
1x Gun emplacement for 7.5cm F.K.231 (f).
1x Searchlight 60cm.
3x Vf shelter.
