    Group shelters, part of the "Position at Spaarndam" from the early 20th century.

    From nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positie_bij_Spaarndam :

    In 1917, the position was expanded with a representation in the forecourt consisting of trenches and dozens of concrete group shelters. A front wall was added with a front moat in front of it over the entire length. These defenses are located to the left and right of the Slaperdijk a few hundred meters west of the line wall. The First World War ended before the work was finished. Shortly after the war, a small part, on the front wall, was completed.
