Westwall - Tank Barrier Mörzheim

In Mörzheim near Landau there is a "New Art 1939" tank barrier, ie 5 rows of dragon's teeth on 3 cross beams. The longitudinal and cross beams of the foundation are clearly visible here, they are not sunk into the ground. The original length of the tank barrier was 840 meters, of which 520 have been preserved. In Mörzheim, the realization of a 90-degree bend in the line can be seen twice. It was the Westwall's 3rd retention position in the Weissenburger Senke.
