Molotov Line Bunkers Podemszczyzna - Brusno

Construction of the Molotov Line, a belt of bunkers along the demarcation line between the Third Reich and the Soviet Union, began in 1940. Fifteen reinforced concrete positions were built in the Brusno area, six of them to the south, towards Podemszczyzna, inscribing them in the Rawsko-Ruski Fortified Region. The bunkers for machine guns and artillery were set up to shield each other. At present, the bunkers are located in fields or groves, but they are easy to find. Extreme caution is required when exploring the inside.
