Mejni kamen
Med drugo svetovno vojno je tod potekala utrjena razmejitev med okupatorjema slovenskeka ozemlja Nemčijo in Italijo. Tu so še zelo dobro ohranjeni betonski nosilci nekdanjega nemškega stražnega stolpa. Mislim, da je to dober razlog za skrivanje malega zaklada. Upam, da se strinjate.
Predvsem Nemci so meje zavarovali z minskimi polji, žičnatimi ograjami, bunkerji in stražnimi stolpi. V obmejnem pasu so podrli poslopja, izsekali gozd in ustvarili 50 metrov široke čistine. Za potrebe postavljanja meje so uporabili civilno prebivalstvo. Na bolj izpostavljenih delih so postavili tudi do dva metra visoke pregrade, ki so bile prepredene z bodečo žico, ki so jo razpotegnili tudi po tleh, in nekaj metrov na široko območje zavarovali s pehotnimi minami. Ob meji so pogosto postavili tudi stražne stolpe in vzpostavili telefonsko linijo.
Stolpi so v višino merili do 30 metrov in so stali na štirih betonskih podstavkih. Grajeni so bili iz dvojnih debel, na vrhu pa je stalo 3 x 3 metre veliko in pokrito stražarsko mesto.
Stražni stolp na Toškem čelu je bil postavljen na strateško pomembni točki, od koder se spustimo proti Šentvidu pri Ljubljani. Zunanji tloris štirih betonskih podstavkov meri 7,5 x 7,5 metra.
Na podlagi tlorisa lahko predvidevamo, da je bil po dimenzijah večji od drugih stolpov na tem območju. Na enem izmed betonskih podstavkov je pritrjena spominska tabla, ki nas opominja na nekdanjo mejo in na tiste krute, strašne čase.
Border marking stone
ENGLISH VERSION
During the Second World War, this was the site of a fortified demarcation between the occupiers of Slovenian territory, Germany and Italy. At this particular location the concrete support pillars of a former German watchtower are still very well preserved. I think that's a good reason for hiding a little treasure here. I hope you agree.
The Germans, in particular, secured their borders with minefields, wire fences, watchtowers and bunkers. In the border zone, they demolished buildings, cut down forests and created 50-metre-wide clearings. Civilians were used for the border demarcation work. Barriers up to two metres high were erected in the more exposed parts, with barbed wire stretched across the ground, and landmines were laid several metres wide to secure the area. Watchtowers were often erected along the border and telephone lines were established.
The towers measured up to 30 metres in height and stood on four concrete bases. They were built of double logs and a 3 x 3 metre covered guard post stood on top.
The watchtower at Toško čelo was located at a strategically important point on the descent to Šentvid near Ljubljana. The external floor plan of the four concrete plinths measures 7.5 x 7.5 metres.
On the basis of the floor plan, it can be assumed that this tower was larger in dimensions than the other towers in the area. One of the concrete plinths has a commemorative plaque attached to it, reminding us of the former border and of those cruel, terrible times.
