The bunker is similar to bunkers Sn6 and Sn7. Direction of fire - towards Sn6 bunker. The bunker saw some damage during the hostilities - the armoured cupola and gunport were damaged, but bunker remained in usable condition. After the war the bunker was almost completely destroyed - as the result of the explosion, the bunker collapsed and no inner rooms are remaining.
