Description The study is focused on an entirely new design element of the fortification of the central area of the Great Moravian fortified settlement Pohansko near Břeclav - tunnel access. The tunnel was for the first time discovered in the year 1976, but the original interpretations by B. Dostál, as a construction connection of the inner wall and the front wall, was changed after the new research of destruction of the fortifications made from 2005 to 2007. In addition to communication functions tunnel was probably the boundary of two segments of construction of the wall.
