    The Ouvrage Huberbusch Nord and Süd near Hobling in France (Grand-Est) were bunkers along the French Maginot Line, built in the 1930s as a defense system against possible attacks from Germany.

    Casemates were massive bunkers with weapons and communications facilities. They were designed to stop the enemy's advance and ensure protection of the French border. Ultimately, the Maginot Line was bypassed by German troops during World War II. The casemates are a historical testimony of the defense strategies of the time.

    Each casemate was equipped with heavy weapons, ammunition stores, housing, kitchens, and communications facilities. They were designed to withstand an enemy attack and provide a solid defensive base for defending troops.
