Brilliant, it should be preserved, this is such important bit of all our history and quite fascinating.
I’m not sure if you are an American but how do you go about preserving a piece of history that represents an idea that is no longer excepted without looking like one of those people? That’s a serious question just because people are ripping American history apart right now and I fear we will revert to an earlier point in our history without it.
Thanks Hairnicks :)
I agree. It represents the ingenuity of how things were done.
@Andrew Franko couldnt have ssid it better
this is a part of history that should be looked after. and not destroyed.
Thanks for keeping history alive, no matter what is is! Keep up the good work! All the cement work is amazing.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the Video
What a amazing place and what a Bunker building
Thanks for sharing that adventure with us
All the best yours
Frank
Thank you too Frank and more to come soon :)
Love when Eagle Eyes is able to go. He has keen eyes, and finds what you, or I, would otherwise miss. 👍
So true and thanks for comment and for watching
Amazing that the overhead cranes(s) are still in place for moving the torpedoes/munitions. Thankyou !
Yes i just lovet o see such details. Thanks and greetings from us.
Would love to see those storage bunkers brought back to life. Make a great little maritime museum with all that space. Quite amazing that the original fittings, doors and cables are still in place. Would be an interesting spot to try out the metal detector, especially around the gun emplacements. Cheers, and thanks for another terrific video!
i agreee , would make some great small museums indeed and perhaps installing some gear from the ww2 in there would be great. Thanks Peter and have a great summer.
What an amazing place ,especially the hoist still there. The uboats are great to see the history of. You'd have to have balls of steel to serve in a Uboat.
Great place to be when it is raining we used to say :) Thanks Peter.
When I saw the lager sign, I was hoping there was beer in there. Spectacular location.👍
You and me both and thanks for watching.
OOHHH I love the Unterwasserboots and the Wolf Packs! 4:46 I spotted something I dont think you saw? Right in the middle a telegraph pole that would have been a mast for the the ULF wireless communication - Das Funken Raum! It has a wire still attached. The length of that wire determines the frquency of the radio signal to talk to the Wolf Pack. I will come with my tools and white paint we will restore this mighty edifice. Oil up the hoist so it runs quietly and smoothly.😉👍👍👏👏👏👏
That could be it for sure. Thanks Scopex.
@@WW2HistoryHunter One day I shall come with gifts for you great explorers
Fantastic. What a thrill to be able to go inside and see that. Wow. Thanks for sharing. Love your videos
Glad you enjoyed it
Never commented before just want to say thank you for your content. I appreciate what you do and are capable of
You are so welcome and greetings from us.
I can Imagine How it look back in the day impressive
good thing that we have imagination. Thanks and more to come soon.
I can't Wait but will lol
Superb as this amazing WW2 history hunter shows us the past
Thanks Crow
Loved your video as always it would be good if these buildings got restored to how they originally looked so that people could visit them and see/experience who it was I was lucky enough to see old photos of such places in my childhood from family long gone now but remember the old photos they showed. Keep up the good work stay safe and well Godbless
That's a great idea and thanks for watching.
Wow is that inside the submarine base ? How awesome
great place and loved to share it with you.
Another amazing discovery. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe and keep smiling.
Thanks, you too my friend and greetings from us.
Love this channel 😆😆😆😆
Thanks Walter
ਥੋਡੀਆਂ ਸਾਰੀਆਂ ਇਤਿਹਾਸਕ ਵੀਡੀਓ ਬਹੁਤ ਵਧੀਆ ਲਗਦੀਆਂ ਨੇ ਵੀਰੇ ਧੰਨਵਾਦ ਜੀ
Thanks for watching.
Thank you for the adventure and seeing some awesome stuff from the past ! Take care , stay safe and healthy there in Germany ! Doing well here in Kansas !
Appreciated my friend and greetings to Kansas.
That was really great. Love seeing all the positions and stuff you find. Keep up the great work. To you, Eagle Eye and Bunker Buster stay safe and be careful. Thank you for your a great stories about all the places you go to. Very informative.
Much appreciated!
Holy Madonna - what an amazing place! Thanks for filming this piece of Atlantic Wall history and I look forward to your next video.
My pleasure and you know there will be more coming up Sue :) Thanks
Excellent, really enjoy all your posts, please keep them coming, Thanks
More to come!
looks like a fluorescent tube light in the last one, so it had some post WWII use, smaller bunker before might be for warhead storage or deck gun ammo.
ok and thanks for watching.
Very, very interesting HH & EE. Beautiful view of Atlantic with bunkers strategically placed to be most effective. Wonder where all the guns ended up? Bunkers were built so well, that they still look structurally sound. Germans sure know how to build things to last. 1.6 metre walls, thick and solid. Just like my standard VW Beetle, which I will never give up. Too bad some of the writing was painted over. I was trying to figure what the writing said on that one wall, something about hope? Again, good thing you had EE with you to direct you through the bunker mazes. 😊 I too wonder what happened in that one room, which looked like it had been burned or blasted? Also, wondered what was in the huge bunker/building, which roof you walked on that was 35 metres? Excellent drone shots showing the layout of the bunkers and other structures. Did EE fly the drone? Definitely would be scary when the camera light went out. Looking forward to part 2 & 3 and the long video. Again thank you for sharing and keeping history alive as it is so important. Take care HH & EE ❤.
Beetle , are you mad,,,,he he. Well that is actually a pretty decent car if you ask me. There are so many details there to look at and learn from and there are many bunkers there that are still closed and a secret must be there :) EE did fly all the drone shots there and he is getting good at it i have to say. More to come very soon and take care , dont work to much and greetings from us.
@@WW2HistoryHunter not mad, just a little sleep deprived. 😂
Love your adventures!
Just a Quick question. Did they use some dieselpowered engines to power these search-lights? I mean, some of these locations are so remote..
Do you guys ever find parts from generators or smashed parts of such? 🤔
yes they used engines to run the generators and we do find some stuff from those units every now and then. Thanks for comment and for watching.
That area looks like a jungle, so thick in vegetation !!!
yes it does and some of the structures are totally inaccessible because of that. Thanks for taking time to comment and watch.
Awesome video love the German Kregsmarine stuff hope to see more of it in the near future
Appreciate you watching.
my dad was serving on the Atlantic merchant crossings and feared the u boat over all else, wonder if this is near Wilhelmshaven ?
Thanks for watching.
So was that a torpedo that ya'll found in the water awhile back ?
Well time will tell Pug :) Thanks my friend.
I love the cabin! RightOn!
Thanks and i agree , great place.
Did that tunnel system link up with Sub pens?
None of these did but others do. Thanks Gary
That's amazing
Thanks Claude.
I like all your videos there really interesting but I get mixed signals can't quit tell if you for Hitlers Germany or not
I am only here to share and show what we experience being history hunters. Thanks
Did I hear correctly that you were a submariner??
yes , sonar operator. Thanks.
@@WW2HistoryHunter nice one sir been watching for a long time and didn't realise you were a submariner, that takes a special kind of of person to serve your country under the waves ,your vids are 👌 brilliant and to enjoy your adventures with your kids is priceless sir,
I'm in Glasgow Scotland and my 8yr old great nephew has been looking into anything and everything WW2 and especially if it's German guns, badges etc
Do you ever sell(send to uk) any of your special finds as I'd love to get him something that you've actually found,
Cheers Andy
its KriegsmarinE not kriegsmarin you say the e at the end 👌
Thanks for watching.
Airplanes, ships, guns, all important tools of war. But what is impressive in all of your videos is the concrete! Of course, that usually is all that is left! ;) But the Germans used so much concrete on everything they built! The engineering they used in so many things was very, very impressive. It is too bad that it all was used for such evil. Thanks again for sharing another great adventure!
i kind of agree Jim. The structures are just crazy when you think about the effort , materials and build places. Good thing that we stil can see many of them around. Thanks and stay safe.
I agree Jim. I've never seen so much concrete in every video he shows. Must be enough concrete to build a 4 lane highway from coast to coast in the US, 3000 miles.
The Nazi’s despised modernism, but turned a blind eye on military architecture.
yes they certainly did use a lot of concrete. but i suppose it was used for protection and so that they wouldn't get bombed.
Gutennacht Heir His Hntr , I'm Gobbsmacked that was really cool , if memory serves me they had two Uboat pens in Norway built probably just like the one in France are the actual pens there still , Awesome Folk Indeed 👌 lolololol , Found out the US Navy is about to recommission the new SuperCarier John F Kennedy , my dad served on the original Carrier JFK, Atlantic Fleet Norfolk Virginia he's a plank owner original commission crew, you have the salt n sea in your veins and I have Jet Engines sounds and Jet Fuel in mine lolololol 🤣 You n the KIDDOS Take Care onto the next
Thanks Snowman and greetings from us.
In the first long room with all the pipes on the ground, you called it torpedo storage. Torpedoes are pretty long. How did they get them through that door and around the corner?
Torpedoes were often stored in sections and assembled before usage. Thanks
Seriously interesting , great to see no graffiti anywhere . This area would make an amazing museum. German WW2 history has a dark side but there is also a side that should be preserved and kept for future generations. Keep up the great work 🤗
Thanks Chris
you should visit the Atlantic Wall Museum in Oostende,Belgium.A amazing place
yes it should be preserved why hasnt some of these things been taken to museums
I'm very late to the party with this comment but, yes, the absence of Graffiti is amazing on these WW2 remains. Really!
I’ve been watching a few other RUclips pages with the same subject, you sir are very knowledgeable about this subject of what was what and how it was used, the others say I don’t know what it was, but you know what something is,
And if 24 Celsius is hot, then in Australia will kill you when it’s never below 42 lol 😂
Thanks my friend.
In the first, long narrow room you went into, you called it torpedo storage. That doesnt make sense to me, because how do you get the torpedos out? There are two 90* corners. I would think that would be too difficult to get them out. Maybe it just held other things.
Torpedoes were stored in sections as well as in full length my friend. Thanks for watching.
I thought those hooks were for bunk beds that clipped up to the wall. Thought I'd seen something like that at Normandy. GREAT VIDEO.
Thanks again for this great adventure.
Our pleasure and thanks.
What country was this base ? I remember when I was in the Royal Navy and seeing the u-boat pens at Brest as we sailed past them courtesy of the French Navy - it was pretty impressive some 50+ years after WW11.
Thanks for watching.
Brilliant. Thanks for sharing. Amazing that so much is still left 👍
Dan Didnot okay clever dick 2 now does that make feel better ?
Would like to see the submarine docking area. Or did they dock elsewhere and the torpedoes were delivered from this spot. This was spectacular. Thank you
Well we will show more later. Thanks
Another fantastic adventure exploring an amazing location. Thank you so much for sharing with us!
Glad you enjoyed it
I guess it's a good thing many of these places are isolated, it's kept them from being demolished.
Good to see them still there at least. Thanks.
If it was London they would knock them down and build flats!!!!
What an amazing adventure. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us. Have you ever come across a bunker that people have turned it into a home?
There's a lot of those 'conversions' in France, used to be as coastal holiday homes but there's specific bunkers which have been built around and incorporated into housing blocks/flats... More along the Channel coastline that I know of though possibly elsewhere as well.
yes Richie we have , many time and a freind of mine has his very own storage in his bunker. Thaks
here in germany they turned a few bunkers into homes,because it was to expensive to tear them down
Electro gallium L.E.D.s search lights were invented the Tesla/Westinghouse for the US navy in ww2. There's one mounted on a British tank at bovington tank museum.
Never knew that that's awesome to know thanks for sharing
How cool to know. Thanks and greetings from us.
@@WW2HistoryHunter keep a few.good men safe soon we will have better
Unbelievable Thank you for sharing. I have never seen the inside of something so incredible as this. My Best Always
Glad you enjoyed it and greetings from us.
Super amazing submarine bunker storage areas. Wow, thank you, history hunter and Eagle Eyes.
Yes just loving that and thanks William :)
Very cool love the channel, keep doing what your doing man it's great to see all this history at the rate the world is going who knows if will be here tommorrow to see it.thank you.
Thanks! Will do!
Hi,
Was it the West German navy you done your national service with?
And did I hear you say that you served in the submarine arm?
Regards
Nick
I served as a Sonar operator. Thanks for watching.
Great location. I did not realize you had been a submariner.
Stay safe, my friend.
I had my fear share of tim eunder water one could say. Thanks Alfred and greetings from us.
The Germans certainly knew how to build things
They seem to have done quite a lot of stuff around yes. Thanks.
Hi, would you recommend some very good books about modern german fortification or about modern fortification in general ? You seems like guy who knows a lot about it ??
Not that i know of i am afraid. Thanks for watching.
@@WW2HistoryHunter well thanks anyway for answering...😁😁☺☺
Amazing location, thank you. Left me speechless. Can`t wait for the next adventure.
You and me both and thanks Allen
❤️👍🇬🇧
:)
AMAZING VIDEO 🎉👍🎉👍🎉👍.
Thank you! Cheers!
Great explore. Thanks for taking us along.
Glad you enjoyed it
Speechless....thank you
So nice of you
History should always be protected , no matter how bad it was , or we will always repeat it !!! Wish you would say at least what country you are in !!! I have no clue !! Thanks !!
i agree all history should be treasured for the future. Thanks for watching.
... I don't think the point of not repeating Nazi history is necessarily to preserve an old, rotten bunker. I mean I like to watch these things, but I don't idolize them.
I would love to see inside that submarine base
Interesting place it is.. Thanks.
I have a real interest in hearing about U-boats, As U-534 Is on display not far from were i live.
Great to read and thanks for watching.
Wow, what a great location! They just continue to get more interesting. What was around the corner at the end of the large hall?
I have no idea perhaps some storage..Thanks for watching.
Good idea to walk away from the camera. Otherwise, we can get no idea of scale.
Thanks and greetings from us.
Thank you...Great Video................JB............
Glad you enjoyed it
Wot a great video many thanks keep up the great work
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks.
Great video! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
WOW, great find great location eagle eyes and dad. There is so much to see here and it raises so many questions. I suspect the out door cabins and barracks were pretty comfortable for submariners to get a small amount of down time? Was this area a simple weapons resupply or did it include additional supplies? I suspect a fairly comfortable assignment for the troops as you wouldn't want them setting fuses etc. - mistakes would be fatal.... Lobe the video... Be Safe Be Well Be Careful...
the u-boat crews had many places to recover , rest and have pure relaxation time in the area including even a movie theater :) Thanks Ted and stay safe.
Torpedoes are very expensive to build. They could cost more than the ship they were shooting it at. That's the reason WW2 Submarines had large caliber artillery guns mounted on the deck. It cost far less to sink a ship with a gun than with a torpedo. The convoys ended that option as they included War Ships that could and did shoot back with artillery or depth charges.
Thanks for feedback and for watching.
Oarsome work Boys,Being an x submariner in the Royal Australian Navy I have a huge interest in this Subject and I am constantly learning daily on what went on in this time....A Big Hello from the Land of Oz Australia 🤓👍
Thanks a bundle my friend and greetings to Australia.
That was the most amazing place thank you, Did it go back into the Hill (had they tunnelled it out)?, the locals in that area should turn it into a museum of WW2 great location and history
it is in the rock side itself and what a great location it is. Thanks Mal
@@WW2HistoryHunter makes me so sad they striped all our rights all of Europe. Why do we need people to protect what we can and could 123
I have not been getting my notifications. So today I am binge watching to get caught up. I'm the little old lady in Texas and I love all you do. We are reliving small parts of history with you everyday. I love your enthusiasm. And your son has become a great help with you. Keep on doing what you do so well. Thank you for all you go through to film these videos for us. This Texas lady greatly appreciates you..💕🇺🇸💕
Hm , that is not good to read but i know YT messes up those notifications often. Glad you enjoy it Wanda and very much appreciate your kind words. Greetings from us to Texas :)
I would love to donate but I'm on a fixed income, medical disability, but moral support I will gladly give you, you do a amazing job at this, really good description, most just go there & show you the place, you give a full package of what it was, what every piece of scrap metal found was used for even real old original photo's of the place or a similar place or placement, totally excellent job I say, thanks for the videos, take care, play safe, & cheers brother........
We appreciate your kind words and you watching Kirk. Greetings from us.
Thankyou for taking us along!
With your amazing knowledge of ww2, would you think there are any sites/ bunkers/ tunnels that have never been found since the Germans left, or have they all been found since the end of the war?
Massive 👍🏻 guys!!
There are many out there still i promise you. Thanks Dan
Those naval storage bunkers are just incredible and definitely should be preserved. Those were carved into the side of the mountain and are still in great shape, despite not being maintained all of these years. German engineering was outstanding truly. I can't imagine how amazing that adventure would have been exploring those positions and those bunkers, especially with that wonderful view of the sea. No wonder someone was inspired to convert an old barracks site into a cabin. Once the vegetation was cut back, what a great view they had from the back porch of their cabin! As a fellow Navy veteran, I can relate to your excitement about this site. Very cool, indeed, my friend. Well done, as always, by you and Eagle Eyes!
That storage is just awesome to study and i enjoy finding these special locations. Thanks Shane and greetings from us.
This was particularly interesting as my late Dad was a submariner during WW2. He was great at describing things and really got the imagination going, but it's a pleasure to watch your videos to bring things to life.
Dad was an explosives expert and I remember asking him about the dangers of carrying torpedoes around. He told us that most were put together and primed aboard the subs as you explained, to prevent disasters. They usually waited for the Captain's order before preparing depth charges and torpedoes etc.
I have the greatest respect for submarine crews as conditions were not always pleasant and it was a dangerous occupation.
Many thanks for your always-informative videos, which are nearly as good as my Dad's explanations. That "almost" is not meant as a slight on your excellent work, by the way - it's just because he was my Dad.
Appreciate you taking time to comment and watch.
Have you were gone to any of the Uboat pens? It's my understanding that the germans built around 6,000 bunkers. Amazing!
I have and will show some later. Thanks
Amazing place. You're right about the U-Boat bunkers, so well built that the military still use them today. I love the original cranes in there. It makes you think of how many Allied ships were sent to the bottom because of this place...
yes , just my thoughts. If only the walls could tell. Thanks
11:18 ਤੇ ਪਤਾ ਲੱਗਿਆ ਕਿ ਇਹ ਯੂ ਬੋਟ ਤੇ ਟਾਰਪੀਟੋ ਬੰਕਰ ਆ ਬਹੁਤ ਵਧੀਆ ਜੀ
Thanks
While you were interested in the Luftwaffe growing up, am sure the submarines have a special place in your heart. Showing the defensive positions for this location was interesting to see. Seeing the torpedo bunkers must have been something for you to see but actually being able to go into some of them had to be exciting. You can scratch that off your bucket list lol. Your so lucky to be able to go to these locations and explore.
Yes the Kriegsmarine will always be very close to me. Thanks Anthony :)
THANKS GUYS!!! History should be preserved not abandoned,destroyed or shunned.
Thanks Jeff
You should see if you can go to Heligoland. I know it’s corona time but maybe after. It was a huge rock on the middle of the North Sea. They used it mostly as a resupply depot for uboats in ww2 and as a sub pen in ww1. I don’t know if there is a way to get into the bunker itself though
Tie will tell.
I really enjoy your commentary on all your discoveries, the German torpedo storage bunkers we're incredible to see, thanks for bringing us something that we would never had seen ,ever, sad to think this massive space may never become something productive,
Glad you like them and greetings from us.
Dis is incredible :)
Thanks
Im pretty sure that first bunker isnt a torpedo storage room. I think it would be extremely hard to get the torpedoes out. I would think it would have pulleys and or tracks to transport and move heavy torpedoes. That bunker also had zig zags that would make getting long torpedoes out very hard. I could be wrong but i would think that was a bomb shelter and or storage for smaller arms and or ammo. The second bunker looks more like a torpedo storage room than the first bunker. It has the hoist on the ceiling. Like the video anyways.
Well torpedoes were actually stored in sections so this first one had soe of the sections stored there as record says it did. Thanks for watching and for comment.
Amazing find, Love exploring the old locations with you,
Thanks Lorele
Thanks once again for a great video. I agree with you that it's sad the way time has not been kind to this facility. Too bad history couldn't be preserved better. 😢
Well said and thanks Julie :)
A beautiful scenic location and interesting storage Regelbau for torpedoes. Very interesting adventure and a fun experience in learning about the realities of the kriegsmarine warriors and their facilities.
Totally agree my friend and we will show more later. Greetings from us.
a great video again,it`s always a pleasure to travel back in time with you,keep on going .Best regards from germany
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the trip and the emotions you shared.... Regards from Venezuela.
My pleasure and greetings to Venezuela
That was awesome
Appreciated Carol :)
I've been truly amazed with what is still around from WWII in the condition it's in .
Still great discoveries out there. Thanks
I am truly amazed at the bunkers and storage facilities that the Germans had! A lot of thought and time was put into them.
They sure did create so many yes. Thanks Thomas.
11:51 Thank you for your service. Even though I’m American lol. All soldiers deserve respect
Appreciated and greetings from us.
i served in the german army, i agree.a salute to all who served their country
Wow big storage space and the beautiful location thank you my friend
Thanks for visiting
Another cool video ! I was wondering if you ever found anyone living in these abandoned bunkers ?
Sometimes. Thanks
Another great video, but what is round the corner in the bigger room ? You’ve got to go back & show us.
Well that was the exit i believe . from where we came in. Thanks
This remides me of a place in Maine, USA and there is a old miltray base of some sort that over looks the ocean. It was is called the Portland Head Light
ok and thanks for watching.
@@WW2HistoryHunter Your welcome, Also the base is call "Fort Williams," The Portland Head light is the name of the light house there lol sorry for the misinformation. If you ever find yourself in the States stop on bye I'll show the place to you, maybe you could compare the differences between the German Vs American.
I love your enthusiasm , makes your videos worth watching
Appreciated Shane and greetings from us.
