Provinciedomein Raversijde - Atlantikwall - Walraversijde - memoriaal prins Karel, Military museum in Raversijde, Belgium.

The Atlantic Wall Museum displays an array of German coastal fortifications, including bunkers, trenches, and artillery positions along the Belgian shore.

German forces constructed this defensive line between 1942 and 1944 as part of their strategy to prevent Allied landings on the European continent.

Prince Charles of Belgium preserved these military structures after World War II, transforming them into an educational center about wartime fortifications.

The museum complex contains sixty connected bunkers and observation posts, connected by two kilometers of underground corridors and trenches.

The site includes the Aachen Battery from World War I and the Saltzwedel Neu Battery from World War II, both restored to their original configurations.
