The Infanteriebunker Linthkanal A6914 is a World War II-era infantry bunker located along the Linth Canal in Switzerland. Part of the Felddivision 6's defensive installations, this bunker was constructed as part of the Sperrstelle Grynau (Grynau blocking position) to defend the strategic waterway and surrounding area. Built during the heightened tensions of the 1940s, it represents Switzerland's extensive efforts to fortify its borders and key infrastructure during the war.

The bunker is situated on the right bank of the Linth Canal, a location chosen for its tactical advantage in controlling movement along the waterway. Its design follows typical Swiss military bunker architecture of the period, emphasizing durability and defensive capability. The structure remains a testament to Switzerland's policy of armed neutrality during World War II.

Today, the Infanteriebunker A6914 stands as a historical relic of Switzerland's wartime defenses. While no longer in active military use, it serves as a point of interest for those studying military history and the country's unique position during the global conflict.
