The blockhouse of Eperlecques, classified as a historical monument, takes you back into the secrets of the Nazi army.
From 1943 onwards, the Eperlecques forest concealed one of the largest blockhouses ever built by the German army. At 22 meters high, this one-hectare building was intended to serve as a liquid oxygen production plant and V2 rocket launch base, with the aim of destroying London and Antwerp. At the other end of the forest was a V1 rocket launch base. Today, a guided tour with sound and commentary of this historical monument takes you back into the secrets of the Nazi army.

Visited the Blockhaus and was not disappointed, the sheer scale of the building was amazing, no photo will ever do it justice.
You have to remember what it is and what it was designed for but you can't take away the engineering that went into the construction.
Lots of interesting exhibits in the woods leading to and from the Blockhaus with good information and narrative.
Nice picnic area, we went in the morning and took a picnic lunch, without rushing we spent a few hours there.
