I guess this would be a German version of the Trench of Bayonets.

Yep....horrifying to even contemplate the hell these young men were going through when they met their demise:

I visited the Trench of Bayonets in 82, my pictures show a lot more of the rifle barrel projecting from the ground. My father, who visited it with me, commented that sooner or later all the barrels would rust away.
