Stelling van Amsterdam - Batterij aan de Aalsmeerderweg
The battery is located in the defensive line along the Aalsmeerderweg, just west of Fort Aalsmeer. It served to block this route within the Defence Line of Amsterdam.
It was an open earthen battery without bridges over the fore and aft canals.
The surrounding area has remained largely intact, with the defensive line and infrastructure preserved. Information about its occupation and armament is lacking.
