We investigate the Dutch Atlantic Wall. In this second episode we visit the bunkers of Noordwijk and Merlijn speaks with remarkable South Hollanders. Subscribe here: https://bit.ly/Omroepwest In Merlijn over de Atlantikwall, Brabant resident Merlijn Passier travels to Hoek van Holland with his inseparable cameraman Florian (Floor) and producer Jolien van De Zilk in search of traces of the Atlantic Wall. What is left of this megalomaniac German defense line? What scars has the Atlantic Wall left in the Dutch landscape? And how does that structure (and the war) affect the lives of the coastal residents? In his own unconventional way, Merlijn goes in search of answers and that not only produces a wealth of stories about this strange 'contaminated heritage', but also a number of wonderful encounters with special South Hollanders. 00:00 Intro 01:01 The special supermarket of De Zilk 06:09 Bulb fields 07:12 Visiting the observatory in De Zilk 12:54 A look inside the bunkers of Noordwijk 19:06 Cheese farmer who makes cheese in a bunker Watch episode 1 here: • The Atlantic Wall: from Noordwijk to H...
