These anti-tank barriers were erected between 1936 and 1939 to prevent Allied tanks from advancing. The Siegfried Line marked the border of what was then the German Empire; there were also thousands of bunkers and tunnels here. Today these monstrous structures are covered with moss and overgrown with forest.
