The "Schotterwerk Nordwest" ("Rubbleworks Northwest") in Wizernes.

This complex was constructed in tunnels near an old quarry close to Wizernes. On the southern part of the quarry, a large concrete dome was built, to protect the tunnels. The tunnels were used for storing, assembling and  preparing V2 rockets. Firing was done under the large concrete dome.  In the complex was a factory for producing liquid oxygen.

The construction site was bombed several times (with the large Tallboy bombs). Germans abandoned the  building site, leaving it as a giant construction ruin.

8km from the Wizernes launch site, in Roquetoire, was a large bunker for he guidance of the V2 rockets launched at Wizernes site. This bunker was no more that a large garage for a number of vehicles, containing the electronics for guiding V2 rockets. The bunker was codenamed "Umspannwerk C" ("transformer work C").
