That used to be mine....Pantherturm....:

"Panther turret (from battle damaged and retired vehicles along with specially manufactured ones) used in fortifications"
"Turrets were mounted on the concrete (or wooden) emplacements or welded steel boxes, which housed the ammunition storage and fighting compartment along with crew quarters. Such emplacements were located in fortifications of Atlantic Wall, West Wall, Goten-Linie, Hitler Line and in the East."

Hello Doug,

An interesting last-ditch unit. That guy got around.
