The MN18 Observation Bunker is part of the first line of defense of the Position Fortifiée de Liège (PFL), a network of bunkers built in the 1930s to defend Belgium against a German invasion. MN18 was the 18th bunker in the Margarins-Neufchâteau sector and equipped with an FM turret, recognizable by its tapered shape. During the German attack in May 1940, the bunker was destroyed by a 50 kg shaped charge placed on top of the turret, just where the periscope was located. The damage is still visible, making MN18 a tangible reminder of World War II. Right next to the bunker is the Knuppelstock orientation table, an impressive work of blue limestone with a diameter of 1.5 meters and weighing approximately one ton. The relief of the surrounding landscape is engraved on it based on data from the National Geographic Institute, with bronze details indicating the visible points. The table is also accessible for the visually impaired thanks to its tactile elements. The project, carried out by local organizations such as Qualité-Village-Wallonie and the municipality of Aubel, is unique in Belgium.
