Le Grand Blockhaus, Military museum in Batz-sur-Mer, France.
Le Grand Blockhaus spans five levels across 300 square meters, featuring radio rooms, armories, machine rooms, and observation posts within concrete walls.
The Saint-Nazaire pocket, where Le Grand Blockhaus stands, remained the last German-occupied territory in France until its liberation on May 11, 1945.
The museum displays authentic wartime artifacts, military equipment, and reconstructed scenes depicting daily life during the German occupation of France.
Visitors can access the museum daily from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM between April and September, with admission fees of 9.50 euros for adults.
From the top level, at 28 meters above sea level, visitors observe the surrounding coastline through the same viewpoints used during World War II.
