Ostwall - Panzerwerk 766

This bunker of the German Festungsfront Oder-Warthe-Bogen (Ostwall) was built between 1937 and 1938.

All of the Ostwall fortifications are connected by a 32 km long underground system of tunnels. On 28 January 1945 the red army launched an attack on the central part of the Ostwall. After 3 days of intense fightings the Russians managed a break through in the central and southern part.

The bunker today:
Panzerwerk 766 is still in good condition. It is possible for visitors to reach the underground system of tunnels through this bunker.
