Cycling the defenses of Zeeland through the region of Walcheren: from Flushing to Middelburg and Nieuwdorp
The Atlantikwall, constructed by German forces from 1942 onward, was a vast defensive system made up of coastal batteries, obstacles, and numerous support bunkers. In Zeeland, Flushing held great strategic importance. Situated at the mouth of the Westerschelde, it served both as a seafront and a landfront, crucial for controlling access to the estuary.
