The Tune Position

  The remains

There is not much left of the 23 kilometres of trenches or the more than 5000 concrete rooms at the Tune Line.

The line was, contrary to the forts, og a lot of small rooms, barbed wire and trenches. All were build on private property.

After it was left in 1923, everything was given back to the owners of the property, to avoid paying compensation
for the use. Only very few were interested in keeping the reamins. For four years or more, they had lived with
the position, the exercises and the soldiers and they were just happy it was over.

A few consruction has been kept on private property, but are unfortunately not accessible.
