N-S 79 Hrobka casemate
N-S 79 Hrobka casemate, Military casemate near Dobrošov, Czech Republic
The N-S 79 Hrobka is an infantry casemate built from reinforced concrete with three firing positions and a central observation dome set into the ceiling. Located near Dobrošov, it represents a standard design used for border defense fortifications.
Construction of this fortification took place during the final weeks of 1937 as part of the broader border defense system. The structure shows damage sustained during wartime combat, including damage to the observation dome and rear section.
The structure represents Czechoslovak determination to defend its borders during the 1930s and shows the engineering solutions developed for border protection. Visitors can see how the nation chose to invest in concrete fortifications rather than other defense strategies.
The casemate sits on private land managed by a local organization, which means access is restricted for regular visitors. Check ahead before planning a visit, as the site is not open to the public without special arrangement.
The structure retains its original unrenovated condition, making wartime damage clearly visible to anyone who visits. The destroyed rear wall and missing observation dome offer insight into how combat actually affected these border fortifications.
