Geocache Description:


In French they called it the "Grand quartier general allemand 1940".


Today: the bunker’s still there, the village is still pretty much the same but the original barracks have gone (there are new ones)
In June 1940, when German troops had invated France, Hitler was here in to coördinate the troops.
 The Germans took over the small village. They built barracks and a bunker for the führer in the woods.
 The barracks were taken down but two of the three barracks were rebuilt


The church is a story apart. In 1940 Hitler had ordered to remove the church bell and to place a water tank for his men in the tower.
 There are still regularly held memorials over here. When we were there in june 2000, there were many veterans there for a service.
