Witnesses of German History

The Federal Fortress Ulm in Ulm one of five federal fortresses and Europe's largest fortress. These fortresses were financed by the German Confederation (hence the name) and, in addition to numerous fortifications, built or rebuilt in the 19th century and completed in 1859. With a polygonal Hauptumwallung of about 9 km Ulm had the largest fortification of the 19th century.
