Back then it was the old line of defense for Amsterdam

This fort was part of the defense system of Amsterdam that included not only bunkers but also locks to flood the polders to protect in case of invasion. Currently this fort is being used by several companies that rent the space.

This is more that an old bunker. This is Fort Hoofddorp that was built around 1930-1937 to protect Amsterdam. All around there is a defense system to flood the polders (Waterlinie)
