    The Todt Battery, originally Siegfried, was a gun position of the Marine Artillery Department 242 at Cap Gris-Nez during the Second World War. She was equipped with four 38 cm ship's guns with a range of up to 55.7 km. There were several artillery batteries at Cap Gris - Nez, including a French defense battery with 95mm and 100mm guns until 1940, the "Großer Kurfürst" battery with 280mm guns and the Todt battery, to which this museum is dedicated.
