Panther–Wotan line
The Panther–Wotan line (also known as ''East Wall'')〔(The East Wall ). The History of the Soviet Union.〕 was a defensive line partially built by the German Wehrmacht in 1943 on the Eastern Front. The first part of the name refers to the short northern section between Lake Peipus and the Baltic Sea at Narva. It stretched all the way south towards the Black Sea along Dnieper.
==Purpose==
After reverses on the eastern front in 1942, there were calls in early 1943 for the construction of fortifications and defenses in depth along the Dnieper river. After the Battle of Kursk and the invasion of Italy, there was a need to both conserve forces in the east and shift to defensive operations. Hitler ordered the construction of the defensive lines in August 1943. With the Panther–Wotan line, Hitler accepted the abandonment of any further offensive strategy in the east. The change in strategy was however adopted very late and the total length of the front made the construction of any sort of strong line very difficult.
