Czechoslovak fortification of Hlučín region
The Hlučín region is an area in the western part of Silesia, extending into the Czech Republic and has been a disputed territory since time immemorial. The Silesian Wars, the period after the First World War, the Munich Agreement or the end of the Second World War - Hlučín has always been a source of conflict.
It is not surprising that during the First Republic the government decided to build a defensive line here as part of the fortification of Czechoslovakia. However, due to the location and historical experience, this line was only in the south-eastern part of the area - where there was no longer a high percentage of German population.
