Landfront Vlissingen

Description

“The “Landfront”, which formed the northern line of defense of the “Verteidigungsbereich Vlissingen”, ran from Fort Rammekens, across Old and Nieuw Abeele, along the north side of Koudekerke to the dunes of Valkenisse. This defense, built from 1942, was formed by an obstacle in the form of a tank moat, a concrete tank wall and dragon teeth (“”Höckerhindernisse“”) to stop armored vehicles. Behind this were bunkers with anti-tank guns and machine guns (T. de Kruijf, J, Baalbergen, P.J.J. van Dijk and Others], Atlas of the historical fortifications in the Netherlands. Zeeland, Utrecht, 2004, p. 274, thanks to the Bunker Conservation Foundation, www.bunkerbehoud.com).»
