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.
