    After the end of World War I, a number of silent witnesses of the Hollandstellung (Holland Defense) of this period remained on our territory.
    Historical indication:
    The line ran from the Zwin, near Knokke, to Maldegem along the parallel canals, the Leopold Canal and the Schipdonk Canal, and in the east it continued to Vrasene, from where the territory could be flooded by the Scheldt. This line had a length of more than 75 km. Beyond Vrasene, the line also connected to a belt of fortified forts around Antwerp.
