General information about Bunkerkerkhof

Along the North Sea and The Channel, you can see several remains of World War II bunkers. On the beach and of Merlimont / Berck in northern France, however, you can still find a real bunker cemetery. We have no knowledge of the existence of another such bunker cemetery on a beach. The bunkers are downright impressive and many of them are now beautifully decorated by graffiti artists. Definitely worth a visit. The site is also referred to as the "Blockhaus of Berck."

Of course, take a walk through the Dunes of Merlimont. This nature reserve of 92 hectares can be compared to the nature reserve "The Westhoek" in De Panne. A good starting point on the south side of this dune area is the parking lot located at the Camping Ami-Ami. This is the easiest way to reach the cemetery. On the North side you can also walk through this dune area: look for the "Parabolic Dune Discovery Route" in Merlimont-Plage (in French: "Sentier Découverte De La Dune Parabolique").
