It includes a variety of fortifications, which were for a time delay of the Nazis, on the way to the borders of the capital. At no time were erected inspiring buildings, pillboxes. tank guns and a lot of trenches. Keep the defense should have been concluded. In case you happen to build or strengthen a riot conquer the fascists, the whole area was littered with charges. Luckily it did not need to defend themselves. The enemy army was stopped literally "on the outskirts" to strengthen the area, reaching several kilometers.
