    Halve Maan was set up by the Germans during World War II and is the only preserved bunker complex of the Atlantic Wall equipped for anti-aircraft defense. It was built on an older, seventeenth-century defensive structure, dating back to the 1601-1604 siege of Ostend. Also rare: a crew, command and machine gun bunker, observation posts and a flanking bunker.

      Impressive remnants of the wartime directly on the coast in the immediate vicinity of the port of Ostend. Various facilities and buildings remind us of the cruel times of days gone by
