Hiking

The Wetterau-Main-Tauber position was built from 1936 onwards. Together with the Neckar-Enz position, it was intended to prevent the southern part of Germany from being cut off at its narrowest point. Since the provisions of the Treaty of Versailles were still being adhered to at the time, the position could not be built on the border, but had to be built 50 kilometres from the right bank of the Rhine. Bunkers were built from Büdingen to Aschaffenburg and along the Main line to Miltenberg. After the war, almost all of the buildings were blown up by the Allies.

I was out and about in the rain, but it was still interesting.
