    Between Coevorden en Schoonebeek you can find a military reinforcement from elevated earth from 1672: Schans De Katshaar or Katshaarschans.
    The imperial monument consists of a "redoute" with 50 meter long sides and a "retranchement" which was built next to it in the 18th century. The "Schans" never really worked as a military service, but mainly served as a border control.
