If you're referring to the nazi defence against the allies during World War II, The Atlantic Wall was composed of a series of trenches, artillery batteries, concrete structures, pillboxes, machine gun nests, barbed wire, mines, tank traps, and roadblocks. It wasn't a wall in the literal sense of the word but was still a huge deterrent.
