Battery Chamberlin

Open

Seacliff, San Francisco

"stand behind one of these guns and look out over the beach and imagine enemy ships coming in"
Be cautious with camera gear, stay aware of surroundings
The gun "disappeared" underground after each shot to reload

Stand behind a century-old disappearing gun and imagine artillerymen tracking ships through the Golden Gate. The concrete bunkers and Pacific views make history feel surprisingly immediate.
