With the approach of the Second World War , the first fortifications began to appear in Waldmohr 's municipal area in 1938 . This was part of the '' Westwall '' , commonly known in English as the Siegfried Line . There were tank trenches , dragon 's teeth , bunkers and road barriers , all installed by Organisation Todt . In the autumn of that year , more than two thousand soldiers ( horse-drawn artillery ) were posted to the Kuhwald . Until 1995 , a big horse 's drinking trough recalled this event . Organisation Todt built the Siegfried Line 's second Main Battle Line ( '' Hauptkampflinie '' , HKL ) in and around Waldmohr , with more than 30 bunkers ( although 70 had been planned ) . On Kristallnacht ( 9 – 10 November 1938 ) , SS commandoes from outside the village perpetrated great destruction at Jewish villagers ’ homes , particularly at Dr. Salomon 's ( dentist ) and Dr. Levi 's ( general practitioner ) , among others . In 1944 , more fortifications , trenches , dams and road barriers were laid out , along with so-called Tobruk bunkers . During the war , bombs fell on Höcherstraße and Glanstraße ( streets ) , as well as in the surrounding countryside , causing deaths and damage to houses
