Summary[edit]

Description
English: Defence Line of Amsterdam (Stelling van Amsterdam), blank map.

It was built by the Ministry of War between 1883 and 1920. It is a part of the Dutch Waterline. This defensive line was never used in battle and it became obsolete after the invention of the airplane. It's included by UNESCO in the List of World Heritage Sites, 1996.
