Coastal Gun Battery Malo Terminus
Originally, this coastal battery was built by the French navy in 1778, to protect the port of Dunkirk from attacks by the English. In 1939 the battery was upgraded and in 1940 it was attacked and occupied by the Germans, using Stuka bombers. The Germans developed as part of Atlantic wall, a battery with four pillboxes, one fire command bunker and several crew bunkers and ammonitionsbunkers.
The guns were from 1902 and had a caliber of 194 mm.
The gun Battery was in the early 1945 captured by Canadian forces and the guns destroyed.
