Bunker BV 20-1 Pepinster

This is probably Bunker BV 20-1 in Tancrémont wood at Pepinster.

Bunker BV 20-1 is part of the sector Becco-Vesdre (BV) of the 1st line of defense for de city of Liège, la Position Fortifiée de Liège (PFL 1) and belongs to fort Tancrémont.

The bunkers is at 200 m. uphill (of bunker 20-2). Because of its divergent shape this bunker probably would be used as a communicationsbunker. De markers and barbedwire ars stil in place, to mark that this was a milatairy domain.

When after the war the bunker were no longer in use for the defence of Belgium, the iron door and shutters were sold as scrap. The entrance of the bunker is 3 m. below ground level.
