I have seen destruction of historical machines and structures it breaks my heart to see vandalism and destruction of historical artifacts thank you for you're preservation and documentation work tino
Thank you Tino for the excellent video. I continue to be amazed by the scale and number of the construction projects undertaken by the Germans during WWII.
i always loved your longer films.. just full of good facts, information. how i missed sitting back, coffee and feet up , looking forwards to next already part two
Hello Tino, the pillars that you mentioned alongside the path towards the bunkers actually parts of a beach defense structure. This structure contained 3 of those pillars plus an expensive.
Sorry I missed this today. Helping on a search during a SILVER ALERT for a lost family member: not a happy ending unfortunately. Tino, thank you for your continued hard work and outstanding episodes.
fort Rammerkens looks like a fort that's been adapted many times over a very long period, its the kind of example that begs for historians and architects to photograph, perhaps make both 3d and underground scanning imagery to discover what's beneath and what these places once looked like, how they have been adapted or possibly ruined with what ever occupation has gone on looking at the external wall at 22.52 it might seem the fort looked very different, and somewhat prettier than what we see today, and clearly building technology shows how a wall might only be built so high vertically, while later adaptations use brick and double brick layers at a slope to combat gravity while being built, and to be able to take some bombardment it beggar's belief in so many ways, that these were built by man and by hand, it must have taken so many man hours and so much effort to hall in the materials - fantastic video and insight to the old and new
Hey Tino, thanks for showing the Atlantic Wal on the Dutch coast. The closed doors in the bunker is not only for the protection of the bats but also to avoid youth leaving their rubbish and other mess like drinking cans paper rappings and other junk or to prevent drugs users using the bunkers to sleep in and getting high in there. Great job on this documentary the drone is excellent edition to the visuals. 👍👍👍👍👍
bet that won't include the ptt bunker in oegstgeest since east block gents “removed the water pump” turning the place into cheese overnight… taliban mentality cq. double backhanded subterfuge ;) jammer, toch: hoe dan ook. zzzz slaap kindje slaap
Yoooo thats awesome i get to see my own region. As a kid we used to visit Fort Rammekens with school classes. They didn't really speak much about WW2 but i always loved the instant history vibe i got when visiting that place. Vlissingen (when im born) is also a really nice place to visit if you're on holiday. Summer is the best, awesome sunsets. It's like Holland's little Florida 😆
Tino....you make always very interesting videos.....I like it to watch.....especially videos about the fortifications in Europe....too bad I can only give one like this time.....
Tino, it is so interesting to see the evolution of fortifications over the past 500 years or so. Also the development of new fortifications specifically for the Atlantic wall, West wall & East wall. The work you've done and are doing is keeping a record of history that I don't think anyone else is or has done. On top of this there is all the work you are doing to inform of the tunnels build for the production of weapons such as the V rockets, ME260, etc, etc. Along with uncovering the activities of General Frans Klammer and associates. What you are doing is really a full time investigation which you ideally should be spending 6 months in America and 6 months in Europe, it is a great shame that you are unable to get a grant of funding from one of the many affluent philanthropists interested in history. IAM only sorry that I'm not in a position to assist you any more than I do. Keep up the great work you are doing in such a restricted way
The largest caliber gun (still in place) is incorporated Into the dock jetty at Dover and is aimed at Calais, not targeted against the Germans but the French of a few generations prior !
As a canadian, i have read and heard about these places, and it is seeing them that puts it into context as to how huge of a task it was to capture them. Thanks for showing a wider audience the view from the ground.
We must have protection for the pooper, yes, add arches everywhere. Those Germans used all the concrete and rebar for tunnels to build jets, V2, and atomic weapons.
Hi Tino, the problem in Belgium and the Netherlands, in schools, primary and secondary, we study prehistory, the Celts, the dynasty and then that's it, modern wars, the state unfortunately doesn't care.
This was a new edition or this is a old style shaped tunnel and how we do modern building Tino is found within in. That was only discovered very recently in last few years, that is like that found of the Gravity defying Abbey called Mont-Saint-Michel. Have you ever been to it to see the impressive design work on how the abbey stands on the pillars beneath it? You really need to go there and see how modern forts got built. Those rails lying to rot should be preserved by the people of France to show just how well the place was fortified? It’s terrible to see so much history in Europe lying to rot away?
@07:10 my uncle (property developer) always insisted upon the three GOLDEN rules of good development: 1. location; 2. location; … and, 3. location. !!!
There must be a lot of unexplored ordnance from the bombings fighting etc from aircraft ships and that of what men dropped. And don’t pick at the paint in any place you go to Tino! I’m being your dad here son!😂 As lead paints is dangerous to your health from the spores that come off it. Be careful Tino of the unseen spores that can effect your health when disturbing areas. If you get a cough get to a Dr. To get rid of the infection and explain where you’d been to Lso.
This will be another episode with details that we can only get from this gem of a channel ✅
It was actually a lot of fun to do to I kept finding out things about places I didn't know and then I found matching WWII footage
We also get to bcs of Tino and imo the best content on TH-cam
I have seen destruction of historical machines and structures it breaks my heart to see vandalism and destruction of historical artifacts thank you for you're preservation and documentation work tino
Thank you
🎉 more from Tino Great start of the weekend
Take a moment and share on social media let's get Tino some more followers + maybe a rich patron 😉
Thank you for sharing
🎖️🙏🇺🇲
Great imprison of size and scale of the Calia bunkers, they were heavily bombed by the RAF, the area around these bunkers looked like a moon scape.
Thank you Tino for the excellent video. I continue to be amazed by the scale and number of the construction projects undertaken by the Germans during WWII.
I can't wait! Thank you Tino for your amazing footage and masterful presentation.
Nice one, Tino. Keep them coming.
I learned something today and not just once, but twice, so Thank you again TINO!
i always loved your longer films.. just full of good facts, information. how i missed sitting back, coffee and feet up , looking forwards to next already part two
That's what I'm working on right now one or two more days I should be done it's been some 12-hour days trying to get the last one right
@@tinostruckmann sounds like a plan, cheers good man
Every episode is great! I live in SW PA and I grew up with the Rich history from the French and Indian wars, which grew into my own battlefield tours.

Great to see you visited my country next time let me know up front, I own some bunkers that you might find very interesting ;-)

Outstanding Job Tino! The view of Point Du Hoc, brought back a lot of memories. I was blown away, the first time I went thru there.
You are secretly just scouting for more locations for several more movies. 😀
Have wedding in a bunker/fort Thats one way to make sure no one shows up unexpectedly and says they object to the union. Awesome
Mille fois ,thank' supert video👍👍❤🔝

Thank you :)
Hi 👋 🙋🏻♀️
The more things change…..the more they stay the same folks!
"Boundaries shift, new players step in..."
Rammekens is the oldest sea fortress in the world still existing...

Starfort
The best "forts" were the Vietnamese tunnel complexes in Co Chi. Nearly impregnable. Tito you have to go there ! 😎

SOOOOOO, can I wheel in an Atomic Annie and start firing?????

Hoek van Holland
There must be a lot of unexplored ordnance from the bombings fighting etc from aircraft ships and that of what men dropped.

I promise any unexploded Ordnance I find I will check it with a small hammer first before putting it in my carry-on :-)
Tino for Presidente
That would scare some terrify others but it would be great for historians :-)
I'm not sure if I speak for others, Tino, but what is a "Tobruk" (sic)?
An official definition, if there is one?
You left out one of the best preserved complexes of the Atlanticwall . in Raverssyde on the Belgian coast.
I am not done yet LOL
😛😛😛😛❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍
Fasten your seat belt by Tino in Netherlands😄
the thing you have never seen is a prefab foxhole, only seen in that region
Oho I see
can't hear the narration over the dramatic music at the beginning
The video is good as usual, but the sound i terrible, up and down.
Alright I'll ask, why do you know so much about graffiti? LOL
