VT-line
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The VT-line or Vammelsuu-Taipale line (Finnish: VT-linja; Russian: Карельский вал) was a Finnish defensive line on Karelian Isthmus built in 1942-1944 during the Continuation War and spanning from Vammelsuu on the northern shore of the Gulf of Finland through Kuuterselkä and Kivennapa and along Taipaleenjoki to Taipale on the western shore of Lake Ladoga. It crossed the Saint Petersburg-Vyborg railroad at Sahakylä (now 63rd km) and the Saint Petersburg-Hiitola railroad at Kelliö (now 69th km).
