Is it though? I mean we know everything there is to know about the war and even if we discovered something new it's unlikely to be of any practical value. There were bunkers all over Europe.

Yeah this is a fair point, it looks like a generic bunker with the (same limited) equipment long ago pillaged by the local people who knew about it. Not much value IMO, outside of maybe knowing the full scale of the deployment.

Once one or two of them are museums and the known survivors were documented, there's not much archeological or historical value in hunting them all down.
