Šibenice, Artillery fort in Jamnice and Březová, Czech Republic
The military structure sits at an elevation of 377 meters, featuring concrete fortifications designed for defensive operations along the northern Czech border.
Construction of the fort began in April 1938 as part of Czechoslovakia's defense strategy, but work ceased following the Munich Agreement in October 1938.
The fort's name, Šibenice, originates from the Thirty Years' War period when the hill served as a military execution ground.
Visitors can access the site through a road connecting Jamnice and Březová, with parking facilities available approximately 200 meters from the fort.
The initial construction plans included eight combat structures with rotating towers and mortar positions, though only shaft foundations were completed.
