We've visited Margival before. This was the site of Hitler's bunkers on the western front, built by 30,000 forced laborers. After the war, the camp was used for multiple other purposes, including the 3rd US Armored Division, a recruitment center for female personnel in Indochina, a NATO command center, air defense, commando training center, and parachutist center, before being decommissioned in 1992. Now, it's maintained by a group of volunteers.
We visited it today to see an exhibition of American WWII vehicles and camps. One of the members of the organization took us on a tour around the grounds and inside the bunker.
