In World War Two, German defensive fortifications generally ran along the German border in the west. These included minefields, tank traps & bunkers. The bunkers were armed with machine guns and anti-tank weapons. The line was constructed to protect Germany from the Allies that were advancing through France, Luxembourg, Belgium, and the Netherlands. It was difficult to breech the Siegfried Line and impossible to bypass.
