Some former bunkers of the KW line have been repurposed as overwintering spots for bats. And this applies to this one too. The municipality of Haacht was and still is one of the most active in managing these and other remnants of the war.
For those who follow the KW line in detail: you will also find it on the map with all constructions, at regionalelandschappen.be/kw-linie
There it is described as type P 41 second-line defense.
