The command bunker, Regelbau 31 type, bearing tactical number 370, is located on Burgberg hill in the Hürtgenwald-Bergstein region. Built in 1938 as part of N**i Germany’s extensive fortification system known as the Westwall (Siegfried Line), it occupied a strategically vital position in Regiment Sector No. 8.
The bunker was constructed as part of the “Limes” building program (1938/39), which included various reinforced concrete fortifications. Two bunkers were built on Burgberg – the command post Regelbau 31 (No. 370) and the infantry group shelter Regelbau 10a (No. 371). Both structures had “B old” classification, featuring walls and ceilings 1.5 meters thick.
