Bunker B-S 9 Kittsee
Highlight • Monument
They extend from the orographically right bank of the Danube near the border (bunker B-S 1) to the southern outskirts of the district of Lúky, right next to the D2 motorway (bunker B-S 10).
In addition to the former rocket base on Thebener Kogel (Devinska Kobyla), we find a line of defense along the state border near Kittsee (Austria) and Bratislava Petržalka (now Slovakia, then Czechoslovakia) from the Danube to the southern outskirts of Petržalka, which formed a Czechoslovak bridgehead south of the Danube .
There are 10 bunkers here, which are supplemented with some smaller defensive objects. In contrast to the well-known forts of the 19th century, which have a front and a valley side, the large bunkers are defensible on the flanks. The front is protected by a massive earth blanket.
According to a display at bunker B-S 4, these facilities were built before the Second World War to respond to increasing aggression from Germany.
From 1948, further expanded under Soviet leadership, the bunkers with the border installations served to protect against an attack by NATO and at the same time also to secure inside within the framework of the "Iron Curtain".
As part of my research, I found three more bunkers in the southeast of Petržalka: B-S 13 (Stoh), B-S 14 (Duna), B-S 15 (Ostrov) and another small bunker B-S V 4.
Bunkers B-S 11 and 12 were in today's settlement area and no longer exist. A photo visit will be made up for on occasion.
