Taken from a plan on Facebook, I have drawn up my plan. One R612 casemate covering the lock gates with a bunker, Tobruk and a poss. 4.7cm Skoda casemate??. A water reservoir then another bunker, Tobruk and a second R612 under construction. A comprehensive trench system connected all the positions.
Since WW2 the river Seine has been diverted and nothing remains.
