Why was the french maginot line not effective?

Because it lulled the French into a false sense of security. We have a big strong wall facing Germany, come at us, bro. Problem was, Germany had other plans. The Ardennes Forest, in Belgium, was thought to be impenetrable by the French defense minister, Andre Maginot (coincidentally, the same guy who built the wall). But the Germans managed it, keeping their armour on the road and pushing their troops through the woods.And a funny thing happened.Germany had placed a small diversionary force in front of the Maginot Line before they went shlepping through the Ardennes, so the French were certain an attack from the front was imminent. Germany crept up behind them, and wouldn't you know it? there was a flaw in the Maginot Line - the guns, pointed at Germany, could not be turned around to defend against attackers from the rear. A (French) bloodbath ensued.
