The V3 base or fortress of Mimoyecques is also known as the "London gun site". It is located on the D249 between Landrethun-le-Nord and Leubringhen. The fortress of Mimoyecques and its underground tunnels were used as an experimental base for the German secret weapon of the last chance, the V3. This is the longest gun ever built by the Germans during the Second World War. The site was destroyed by Allied bombing on July 6, 1944. Today, 600 meters of underground galleries are accessible to the public.
