Blindages of the German Army Support Point in Tilžė Village
Fortification

The blindages are located in the village of Tilžė, just next to road No. 5303.
Two blindages of the 88th Division of the German 8th Army, which fought against the Russian Army on this front from 1915–1918, were designed to protect the soldiers from enemy fire. They were made of concrete. A small amount of reinforcement is visible in the roof structure of the shelter. The inscriptions “88 J.D.T.” preserved on the beams of the blindages (metal gutters) indicate that they were made by units of the 88th Division.
