Restored Cupola 120 at Fort Eben-Emael

Fort Eben-Emael, ooit als onneembaar beschouwd, viel in mei 1940 door een aanval van Duitse luchtlandingstroepen.

This interior view shows the restored Cupola 120 at Fort Eben-Emael, featuring two fully mounted 120 mm artillery guns. Once part of the fort’s main firepower, the cupola has been carefully reconstructed to reflect its original state during the 1940 German assault. Today, it serves as an exhibit open to visitors, offering a rare glimpse into the military engineering of one of Europe’s most formidable fortresses.
