Bunkerinfo
W.N.126 was part of the Land Front of the IJmuiden Fortress and consisted of approximately 16 works. What is striking in this position is the number of ammunition bunkers, of which no fewer than 5 have been built. 3 of the ammunition bunkers were of type VF2a, and 1 ammunition bunker was of type VF1a. There was also a loose ammunition niche. The photos below are of the VF1a which was once connected to a Tobruk by an 11 meter long corridor. The corridor has already been demolished, but we do not know whether this is also the case with the Tobruk.
