The following pictures come
from a pre-war brochure sent to me by John Howell, Hqs./276th. A few
are reproduced below.
A view of the Schlossberg. Railroad tracks
are at bottom of picture. The castle was taken by I/276. It's
tactical value is evident. It had a commanding view of the
surrounding terrain.
A panoramic view of Forbach. Saar River is
in distant background. Schlossberg is to the left.
A view of Forbach from near the
Schlossberg. Compare this to the photo on the
previous page.
