    Belgian bunker B29, built during the interwar period as part of the Ghent Bridge Head. The construction of the bunker was part of the fortification policy that Belgium pursued after the First World War.

    This bunker contains one entrance hall and two rooms with firing openings for machine guns and an observation dome, which could be reached via crampons.

    There are still quite a few traces of the brick wall around the bunker, originating from the camouflage house that was built around the bunker.
