Post 29
Post 29 seen from the anti-tank barrier of the Roncia (24/06/1999).

Post 29 is a small type 7000 works located on the Plateau of the Vaccheria behind Center 19 (1).

It consists of a simple concrete casemate-pillbox armed with a machine-gun lacking the metal plate protecting the embrasure. In order to save money the metal plates were never installed. Inside there is a concrete foundation on which the weapon's tripod was set up.

As can be deduced from the complete lack of vegetation in the area, the post is submerged by the water of the lake when heavy rains cause it to reach its maximum level.


(1) After the war the French renamed Post 29 as "R 38".
