The Hauenstein Fortifications in the Baselbieter and Solothurn Jura formed the eastern northern barrier in Switzerland's defense during World War I. The chain of fortifications and defensive works is over 42 kilometers long and forms a protective semicircle around the railway town of Olten. It is embedded in a stunningly beautiful natural and hiking area.
