V1 Launch Base Avesnes-Chaussoy

This launch base is just a short trip from the A29. The place is difficult to find, is nowhere indicated. It appears to be accessible via the driveway to a Chateau, so you initially think that you are not allowed in. Small hand-painted signs take you to the launch facility through the forest. There is quite a bit left of that. The conservation appears to be done by the Chateau owners. The installation is therefore privately owned. When you visit the place, respect the tranquility of the residents and keep it tidy. The V1 that is there is also a replica, that is of course clear.
