Presentation

It was here that the Germans built Station No 37 Telemach Y Geräte Jägermess Stellung, occupied by the 20th Company of the Luftwaffe Ln-Rgt52.

This friendly fighter control and guidance station consisted of:
- the concentration of the 3 Freya radars, 150 to 200m apart in the west,
- the apparatus constituting the 3 Y Lines in the eastern part,
- 3 casemates which contained the operators and the apparatus necessary for the operation of the "Heinrich Towers" (direction finding apparatus),
- 3 casemates implementing the "Hans Pylons", transmitters implementing the IFF system embarked in the friendly fighter aircraft,
- a Heinrich Tower and a Hans Pylon which constitute a Y-Linien (Y Lines).
This system made it possible to track and guide several "friendly" fighter formations (several Y-Lines) to their targets.

On 16 August 1944, Vallier and his men, accompanied by village resistance fighters, attacked the radar station but the enemy had already left. This station seems never to have been in service.
