Wolfsschlucht II

Wolfsschlucht II is a military command complex located across three municipalities in the Margival area, built with multiple concrete bunkers with reinforced walls. The site contains command centers, communication facilities, quarters, and other specialized rooms designed for directing military operations.

The complex was built as a command center during World War II and served to coordinate military operations in the western theater. The site became strategically important after the Normandy invasion in 1944, when it handled communications and planning for ongoing military campaigns.

The site shows work areas and living quarters where visitors can see how military personnel lived and worked during wartime operations. The preserved spaces give an impression of daily life in a command post far from the fighting itself.

The site is spread across three different municipalities, so planning your visit in advance is important. It helps to learn about access points and the best route before arriving, since the locations are scattered across the region.

The site came under direct attack during a significant visit by an aerial weapon that rarely reached such protected military facilities. This incident is one of the few known attacks on such a fortified command post during the entire war.
