Areál československého opevnění Šatov, Military fortification museum in Šatov, Czech Republic.

Areál československého opevnění Šatov is an infantry block complex with original military equipment, two fortification cannons, and anti-tank weapons positioned as part of a defensive line along the Austrian border. The site demonstrates how soldiers occupied and operated these tightly constructed positions during different historical periods.

The two infantry blockhouses were poured in August 1938 by the Prague firm Konstruktiva, each using 1450 m³ of concrete, following the design of blockhouse OP-S 41 near Opava. On 27 October 1938 Adolf Hitler inspected MJ-S 2 "Úvoz", where a wooden staircase and viewing platform had been built on the roof. German troops later tore out the steel gun embrasures; after 1948 the buildings were completed by the Znojmo firm Ing. Růžička and held in combat-ready condition until 1999.

The two infantry blockhouses carry the names Zahrada ("Garden") and Úvoz ("Sunken Lane"), taken from the terrain around Šatov. Inside MJ-S 3, the two 85 mm fortress guns are displayed in different positions: in combat position in the left firing room and retracted in the right casemate. The interior is restored to its 1980s appearance.

Visiting is best done on weekends or during summer months when the site is regularly open. Guests should check current opening times beforehand and expect uneven terrain and narrow spaces inside the bunker structures.

On 27 October 1938 Adolf Hitler inspected the MJ-S 2 "Úvoz" blockhouse, and a viewing platform reached by a wooden staircase was built on its roof for the visit. The German army later tore out the armoured embrasures for the L1 and M weapons, made of high-quality cast steel.
