Per Albin Line
The Per Albin Line was a 500 kilometer long line of fortifications erected during World War II around the coast of southern Sweden to protect the country from a possible German invasion.
It stretched from Hallandia across Scania to Blechingia and consisted of two defence lines:
- First defence line: machine-gun armed concrete bunkers along the shore (several of which still remain)
- Second defence line: armed troops 300 meters inland behind barbed wire, some in concrete bunkers.
