Description I think it's called a trench in English... I don't know what war was it used in, but I saw it in the eastern Finland.

Perhaps a line of fortress called 'Salpalinja' if you saw it in the east..

Very nice shot.

wow, that is really cool! im guessing it has to be a replica, as i doubt they're still around after all this time!

I did some research, this is what I found: [link]
I don't think you understand Finland But it says that the place was chosen as one of the last defence lines of the war against the Soviet Union in 1940-1944. After all they never had to fight there. The trenches are the same as the ones they built then, but they have been restored.
