Bock Casemates

Bock Casemates are underground military fortifications, primarily used for protection and defense. Built as part of fortresses, they are tunnel-like structures with thick walls and small openings that allow soldiers to observe and fire on enemies while remaining safely inside. These structures often form part of a larger defensive system, providing secure positions for soldiers and artillery, and helping to defend strategic locations. Their design emphasizes durability and security, making them resistant to enemy fire and explosions, and they played a significant role in historical fortification strategies.
