Nice find Alexandru. :ok: I think that is Atypus muralis, according to 4 segments in the spinnerets, but it would be interesting to see other discriminating characters, for example the spines on the metatarsus L4.

N.B. This spider, despite the enormous chelicerae, is not dangerous. The odd shape is due to its hunting technique --->

Yes I think so too, it is an Atypus muralis because of the posterior four-segmented spinnerets. A. piceus has three segmented spinnerets and so A. affinis.
