Bombing

I always thought that the British dropped tall boy bombs around the site to cause an 'earthquake' effect knocking the site out of alignment or somehting, it was in a BBC documentary but I can't remember any details. (Fdsdh1 (talk) 17:44, 8 July 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Museum status?

I wonder if we could update this article to show/emphasise that there is actually a museum there (and describe its exhibits if possible)? The official website is here. Merci! Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by) 11:40, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've now done just that, in the course of rewriting this article. Prioryman (talk) 17:47, 19 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
