Go there and contact
The secret base of Mimoyecques, a site of history and nature carved into the chalky massif of the northern Boulonnais region.
The Fortress of Mimoyecques, nicknamed the "London Cannon", is a fascinating and emotionally-charged historical site located in Landrethun-le-Nord, Pas-de-Calais. This underground base, designed by Hitler to house a V3 cannon capable of bombing England, bears witness to the scale and folly of the Second World War. Destroyed by the Royal Air Force in 1944, the fortress today offers a breathtaking journey back in time!
