%X A search at the Archives D¨¦partementales du Finist¨¨re in Quimper permitted to find documents indicating the presence of WWII bunkers in the area of the nowadays hôpital Morvan in Brest.

The visits permitted their identification and to ascertain that some of them are presently in good preservation state, others partially demolished and integrated in a modern hospital building, and some other completely demolished. The bunker demolition technology employed is documented by images and commented. Notwithstanding the ancient hospital buildings were classified as historical monuments and so protected against alterations and demolitions. No protection is ensured to the bunkers which risk is to be altered or demolished according to circumstances, depending on the development of the hospital.
