Westwall - MG Bunker

Part of the Westwall or Siegfried lIne, this machine gun position ("MG Schild" in German) overlooks the K25 road and its bridge across the Perlenbach from which the mill takes its name.
Today it is in ruins, but a wooden bench and table for hikers allows for a fine view of why the strongpoint was sited here.

The Belgian border is less than 4 km away down this road.
