What an amazing place, and in such great condition - even after all this time. I'm betting the wooden framework in generator room was for distribution panel - gauges, switches, etc. Thank you for that visit. Stay safe-er.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

It most likely was and thank you for being here :)

@skimmer8774 2 года назад

I really like the fact that dad and son are best friends doing these great explorations together. Thanks for sharing this exciting area.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

We do enjoy ourselves out there yes. Thanks my friend.

@timjohnun4297 2 года назад

It never ceases to amaze me how much work you do to present these videos. Eagle eyes is getting a great childhood, too, that he'll never forget

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Wow, thank you!

@cynthiaswearingen1037 2 года назад

This backup power supply bunker is amazing, HH. Well spotted, Eagle Eyes!!! Having worked around big generators, I'd say there were definitely heavy duty doors to that room, as the big gennies are deafening. Thank you for showing us this amazing place!💖

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

yes Cynthia what a great place that is and thanks for being here.

@Rich-fh5fh 2 года назад

That was a brilliant watch. That location is yet another German structure that you have to just admire. The vision, design and the fact it's still there nearly 80 years after they left it, respect to that. I can't wait for the next adventure guys. Thank you.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Totally agree and thanks for that.

@three-phase562 2 года назад

Fantastic place, really enjoyed looking at that. The cable was all 4 core, so three phase supplies going out. If it was circa 3" diameter, then liable to be 240mm^2 cable capable of taking around 270 Amps. The metal frame would have had all the switchgear mounted to it, so that each individual feed out could be separately switched on or off. You can see the rail at the bottom had the clamps on that held the cables. Looked like there was also an earth tape running along the side of the cable trench.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Cool feedback my friend and loved that place. Thanks.

Appreciated Charles and greetings from us.

@northernskys 2 года назад

That's really quite a fascinating bunker. So solid. You would certainly feel protected in there, but the noise would have been numbing. The Germans tended to use U-Boat diesel engines as generators, and in that solid concrete bunker, the noise would penetrate every wall, and every room. Bet the Duty Crew would have spent their breaks out in the entrance.... White walls reflect the light better in a bunker, but maybe they painted some rooms Yellow to give their eyes a break from the glare. Especially their rest areas. These places were just as important as the actual gun emplacement. No power, no guns. Thank you both for sharing this unique bunker with us. Cheers! Stay Safe!

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Thank you again for being here Peter and for great feedback. Greatly appreciated.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

So nice of you

@claysmith1258 2 года назад

Amazing how clean it is inside and how fresh the white & yellow paint still looked some 75 years later.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Agree and such a great place to explore. Thanks.

@stephaniepettys4222 Год назад

Amazing bunker! Amazing amount of concrete. You would feel safe, but the noise!

@WW2HistoryHunter Год назад

You are right and we thank you for being here :)

@glennahoopes2895 2 года назад

I think the two yellow looking painted rooms were the generator and machinery rooms. They had the fire alarms out side the doors and it looked like they had fire suppression brackets in the ceilings and the large air shafts two pump out the exhaust. The little sliders on the out side of the doors is to check and make sure it was safe to enter before going in.(no fires or exhaust build up etc).

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Interesting indeed my friend and thanks for being here.

@free-birdrocker8809 2 года назад

Really a great tour of a WW-2 power plants. Those bunkers were huge. Lots of high tech goings-on back in the day in Germany. I always say, heck, Mericans always say, if it ain't made in Germany, it will probably fall apart. Thanks for the tour WW-2HH and Eagle Eyes!!!

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Yes there were so much hight tech gear around these places during that time it seems. Great to explore and share that. Thanks.

@colleenpriest7838 2 года назад

That was awesome. Unbelievable on how thick that was. Thanks for streaming this

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

yes i agree and loved that place. Thanks Colleen.

@tommyking2344 2 года назад

Very awesome place. Thank you for taking us along guys. Stay safe

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Thanks, you too!

@poulterbaz 2 года назад

Words fail me, you could easily walk past that massive bunker and never see it, well done to EE for spotting that. I agree with you, that feature on top looks like a Tobruk defence position, as you would expect on such a site. The thickness of those cables shows just how much power could be produced when needed. Looking forward to the rest of the site, I know you will both find some exciting stuff for us to see. Thank you for sharing this, stay safe and well my friend

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

yes i fantastic place that is and very glad we could share that. Thank you Barry.

@johnpike4551 2 года назад

It always amazed me the amount of engineering that goes into building these bunkers. Plus the advancement of the technology that was at their disposal. It's almost unimaginable that they were doing this back in the 40's. Thanks to both you and EE for this insight into another fabulous installation. Stay safe guys

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

I agree so much high tech stuff they had during the days. Thanks John.

@daveh5605 2 года назад

Eagle Eyes spotted the bunker out right away 👍 What an awesome structure. I am always amazed how well everything was made. Consistent German engineering!

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Thanks again David and yes EE do have a trained eyes to find those things it seems :)

@markbaker2580 2 года назад

A power plant in the middle of no where amazing they had it going on that bunker was so thick but I guess it had to be if not it could have been heard a long ways away from there thank EE for not been just there you found that bunker thank you , great place .. Be careful. Be safe ! Thank you HH ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Great point and loved to see that out there. Thanks Mark.

@allenhigginbotham3740 2 года назад

Another fantastic location, can't believe how bright the paint is. Thank you and EE for taking us along for the tour. I really enjoy these bunker locations, makes you wonder what took place there. Can't wait for the next episode.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Yes such great details there for us to study. Thanks Allen :)

@HaGirl10 2 года назад

Very pretty music at the intro HH. That 1941 Electricity Bunker power plant was spectacular. Good catch as always EE. I think that I would feel pretty safe in that bunker with the 2 1/2 - 3 metre thick walls and ceilings. Pretty solid and well constructed. The painted rooms did look like they might just be the 3 crew members bedrooms. The yellow hue makes it more of a cozy ambiance. Just a small detail like that makes a big difference. Pretty impressive. Thanks for taking us alone you two. You are quite a team. Please continue to be safe.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

i would agree Laura , pretty safe in there and it was fully buried to protect the ger inside. Strange with the different paint colors in there. Thanks Laura and greeting from us.

@buzzabuzza3494 2 года назад

AMAZING!! This must be one of your finest explores by far what a place many thx again👏👏👏👏👏

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Glad you enjoyed it my friend.

@Bill53AD 2 года назад

Great opening drone shots. The generator bunker is in great shape. It would be great to follow the power conduit, you would find that the cables branched one or two heading to each bunker and building. The single heading out on its own may go to a building on the edge of the complex or they drilled the hole later to add it in. The ceramic piece could also be plumbing, the center curve looked about 150mm in diameter. Keep up the great work. Both of you stay well and safe.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Great place William and thanks my friend for being here.

@joeschneider732 2 года назад

This place is amazing! Can’t imagine how loud that must of been when the generator’s were running! Thanks again for sharing!

@donaldmesserschmidt6441 2 года назад

Another great explore! I could envision massive switch gear, like knife switches, on the wall to manage the electricity that was generated and/or routed through this building! Thanks for exploring and sharing!

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Yes must have been a ton of gear there during the days. Such a great place to explore. Thanks Donald.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Thanks again!

@alfredsletten7380 2 года назад

A very interesting bunker. I, too, and puzzled by the paint in that particular bunker. I wonder if it could have been put there as some type of waterproofing to keep moisture out from around the high voltage boxes and cables. Thanks for another great showing of world war II history

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

That could be it and what a interesting place that is. Thank you so much for being here Alfred.

@airbornesoldier8104 2 года назад

Hey HH and EE , a really good adventure boys for our delectation my friends. Three phase had it spot on with his assessment and the heavy doors would help with noise protection. Keep em coming and well done those men 👌

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Sounds great my friend and appreciate you being here :)

@unkeptblueify 2 года назад

Thats insane. If only time travel. See it when it was used. Great video as always. Keep up the great work.

@Surfguitarist59 2 года назад

Excellent video once again. Every time your flashlight goes into a new room, I expect to see a German soldier say "Was Mochten Sie hier? Sehr Lustig ja? :) By the way, the different colors were generally what was available at the time of construction. No real logic or reason except it was available.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

There you go and such a inspiration for us to read that. Thanks and greetings from us.

@marystotts1939 2 года назад

Great bunker. Very different and I can’t imagine the noise of those generators.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Me neither and such a interesting location that is. Thanks Mary and be safe.

@jeanlongsden1696 2 года назад

the ceramic piece you found looks like the connection on the back of a toilet, where the wastepipe connects it to the sewer pipe.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

That could be for sure and thanks Jean for being here.

@neilqsmith5748 2 года назад

Interesting bunker :)

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

I think so too and thanks Neil.

@oldmanhuppiedos 2 года назад

During the war there were no or much fewer trees, even here you can still see trees on the coast where the tops have been removed. I sometimes wonder how much concrete was used in total for the construction of the Atlanticwal. They are paper lead cables with a steel outer sheath.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

yes there were almost no trees there at all during the war time. Tons of concrete was used for sure and great details to see there :) Thanks Oma.

@gregggoss2210 2 года назад

Maybe that ceramic piece was part of a sink or toilet. Great location.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Could be that yes. Thanks Gregg for being here :)

@jimmieallen5096 2 года назад

Man I'd love to metal detect that area who knows what is in the ground. Great vid HH+EE

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Only time will tell :) Thanks.

@Just-me-Laura 2 года назад

That was an interesting explore. Yes, wonder if that first structure was a machine gun Tobruk? Couldn't believe how complex the power bunker was with the thick ceilings and walls, multiple power supply cables, zinc platted tubes, ventilation shaft, 200 & 60 HP generators, etc. Just imagine the time spent designing and building this highly advanced bunker for it's time. Hard to imagine that they even implemented the use of reverse osmosis. I would imagine they thought of the noise levels and installed effective noise barriers as they seemed to have thought of everything. Yes, what other secrets does that place hold. I hope that you have fully recovered from your bout of COVID HH. Thanks HH & EE, very interesting 😊.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

I wonder how long the generators could run in there. Forever if they only had fuel ? Covid is crap and will be gone in the end. Thanks Laura.

@Combinehuntsmanunit 2 года назад

We realy need some people to restore or preserve these bunkers and history or to at least mark them so they wont be lost, and it would be nice to see the larger complexes restored to museums or working order.

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Thanks for watching.

@christopherbraiden6713 2 года назад

Thanks for the video HH and EE well spotted young man. This is another awesome place to visit,must have been very noisy when operating, must be pretty bomb proof!!😎🐓🐓🐓🐓🇬🇧🇺🇦

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Must have been yes and thanks my friend.

@tylersowa3858 2 года назад

I bet the yellow color is for a good mood

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

could be that for sure. Thanks Tyler.

@anthonygonzalez7488 2 года назад

It would be interesting if you could determine the decibel level in each room with the electrical bunker in full operation,,,,

@alittlebitmoore 2 года назад

I do like the way you always treat the sites with respect, I have seen a couple of these sort of installations and would have thought the large rooms off the main Generator hall are for fuel and water to cool the engines. Would not have liked to be part of the crew serving these beasts, noise in that bunker must have been horrible (not that they had a lot of choice).

@WW2HistoryHunter 2 года назад

Must have been so loud in there yes and i loved that place and very glad we could share it with you my friend :) Thanks for being here.
