Siracourt V-1 Bunker

The Siracourt V-1 bunker is a Second World War bunker built in 1943-44 by the forces of Nazi Germany at Siracourt, a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region of France. It was part of the Wasserwerk I complex, one of four planned V-1 rocket production and launch facilities in northern France. The bunker was designed as a long tunnel structure, 215 meters in length and 36 meters wide, intended for the assembly and storage of V-1 flying bombs. Construction was halted by Allied bombing and the advancing Allied forces before the facility could be completed. Today, the partially built bunker remains as a historical site, offering insight into the German V-weapons program and the strategic importance of the Pas-de-Calais region during the war.
