This battery was situated within the Vlissingen defence zone (Verteidigungsbereich), which meant that all four gun emplacements of this battery had to be housed in a single bunker. This resulted in an interesting bunker layout.

At the heart of the complex are two gun casemates. These are fitted with a crew quarters and two ammunition rooms, characteristic of bunker designs from 1942–43.

On either side, two bunkers were built to a design dating from April 1943. This was a precursor to the ‘Schartenbauprogramm’ (Emplacement Construction Programme) decreed by Hitler – a construction programme under which artillery bunkers, in particular, were built in a simplified form. These were bunkers that provided space only for the guns and a limited supply of ammunition. The construction method was modern. The wooden formwork was replaced by concrete blocks (Formsteine). This allowed the bunkers to be built more quickly. The external design of the bunker changed as a result of the use of these blocks.

​Due to the flooding of Walcheren in October 1944, the battery was submerged. The personnel, supplies and guns were moved in time to locations that did not get flooded.
