Bunkers along the Texel coast

Battery Den Hoorn

Bunkers and monitoring stations from the Second World War can be found along the entire Texel coastline. The former coastel battery Den Hoorn in National Park De Duinen was built to counter an attack from the sea on the naval port of Den Helder. The bunker complex was constructed in 1938-1939 and consists of 1 command bunker on the Loodsmansduin and 3 artillery bunkers including storage rooms near the Bollekamer and in the dunes.
