Wassenaar, Rijksdorp - De Klip.
WBN, KVA Amsterdam, Freie Küste Katwijk-Scheveningen.

This location is situated between the Wassenaarslag- Vleysmanlaan- van der Doeslaan and is called "Rijksdorp". The complex contains several Baupunkten: 200, 201, 203 and 202 is actually outside the complex at the other side of the Wassenaarslag. Bpt 202 is the area marked as "G" on the map also called "de Klip".

The area was a piece of coast between Stp.Gr. Katwijk and the special location Stp.Gr. Scheveningen. Therefore the Germans needed a location for some HQ's for a Regiment and a Artillerie Abteilung, combined with additional bunkers and a hospital bunker (Sanitätsunterstand). Later on there were also Luftwaffe units stationed.

After the war, around 1950, the complexes where "claimed" by the Ministry of Defence and specially by the Air Force, to get a War Headquarters and later a Communication centre in the NATO network. Therefore many bunkers were changed or modified for use during the Cold War area till 1976.
Then the big bunkers were transformed into an "emergency headquarter" for one of the government ministries.
Now a days the bunkers are empty or used a "bats shelter" or used by tenants.

You are not allowed to enter this area and there are big animals walking freely.
