Q105986546




The Winterberg tunnel was built by the Imperial German Army through a ridge near Craonne, France during World War I. The 300 m (980 ft) underground passageway, which connected the German frontline to its rear echelon areas, was used to mitigate French artillery on this part of the line when moving troops and equipment into trenches. It was built at a depth of more than 20 m (66 ft).
