For years now, the Czech Army has been selling off, or in some cases
donating, concrete military bunkers built in the 1930s. Originally, they
were to have served as key fortifications against Nazi Germany but were
never put to use. There are some 5,000 such pillboxes in the Czech
Republic, one-fifth of which are now in private hands. More than 360
bunkers were sold in the last year-and-a-half alone.
