The Bunker Archive IJmuiden try to inform you about the defence works in and around the former fortress IJmuiden. The fortress IJmuiden, a in WWII through the German highest army command awarded state, content the village IJmuiden, Driehuis, Velsen Zuid and at the North site of the canal Wijk aan Zee.

In and around the fortress IJmuiden are not only build many German defence works, but before WWII the Dutch army has build different defence lines, the most with concrete bunkers.

IJmuiden with the Industry, sluice and harbours was a very important position in the Dutch and German defence.

This was the reason that both armies choose to reinforce IJmuiden to a solid fortress.

About all this defence works you can find information on the site Bunker Archive IJmuiden.

The information is properly not yet complete so is all the supplement information welcome to build this site to a total Bunker Archive about the fortress IJmuiden in and before WW2.
