OB 2cm Flak

A military bunker located near Saint Peter Port, Guernsey, Channel Islands. This structure was part of the German Atlantic Wall fortifications built during World War II when the Channel Islands were occupied by Nazi Germany. The designation 'OB' indicates it was an 'Original Bunker' - a standard German military fortification design. The '2cm Flak' designation suggests it was intended to house anti-aircraft artillery, specifically a 2cm Flak (Flugabwehrkanone) gun, which would have been used to defend against Allied aircraft. These bunkers formed part of the extensive defensive network constructed by Organisation Todt across the Channel Islands, which were the only British territory occupied by German forces during the war.
