Castel Verdon.
AOK 7, KVA J1, Festung Cherbourg, KV.Gr. Cherbourg, KVU Gr. Cherbourg See, M.K.B. Landemer.

Driving from Landemer towards Greville-Hague, you will see an overgrown terrain with a big fence and a sign "Terrain Militaire", this is the location you are looking for.

A sand path is going into the terrain where you have to lookout for the animals and for the two very big and deep gun pits in the terrain. The four M272 bunkers are easy to find, except that of the first one on your left only the top is visible.
On the terrain are two big and really deep gun pits, built by the French for 38cm S.K. C/34 ship guns. We only could enter one of the pits because of the heavy bushes around the pit. The one, from the entrance at the left side, we visited. Be really careful over here, because the pit is about 20meters deep and there is NO way out, without external help!

Types:
4x M272 Embrasured emplacement.
1x Gun pits for 38cm S.K. C/34.
France, Manche/Cotentin, Castel-Verdon.
