Wonsstelling, Military defence structure in Súdwest-Fryslân, Netherlands.
The Wonsstelling defence installation consists of multiple fortified positions strategically placed along the Frisian coastline to protect against potential invasions from the north.
During World War II, this military complex formed an essential part of the Dutch defense system, connecting to other fortifications along the Afsluitdijk.
The Wonsstelling serves as an educational site where visitors learn about Dutch military engineering and defense strategies through guided tours and exhibitions.
Visitors can access the site by following the coastal road from Makkum to Zurich, with designated parking areas available near the main entrance points.
The fortification includes underground passages and observation posts that maintained direct communication lines with the nearby Kornwerderzand fortress during wartime operations.
