The Western Wall, also called the Siegfried Line (English Siegfried Line, French Ligne Siegfried) by the Western Allies, was a military defense system distributed over about 630 km along the western border of the German Reich, which consisted of over 18,000 bunkers, tunnels and countless trenches and anti-tank barriers . It ran south from Kleve on the Dutch border to Grenzach-Wyhlen on the Swiss border.
