At this place another light installation model 37 (pillbox - (

The stoppage of the fortification works in 1938 (accepting of the conditions of the Munich Agreement by the Czechoslovakian government) affected the bunker right in the first construction phase (excavation, foundations - socle). It was a bunker of the first line with the number 66, type A-140, in reinforced design because of its exposed position in the immediate near of the artillery fortification Bouda (Baudenkoppe). The scheduled technical parameters were: Front wall 120 cm, roof 100 cm, and side wall with embrasure 80 cm thick. It should be resistant against grenades up to caliber 150 mm.
