Fortified group designed to accommodate three to four infantry companies in Thionville

This fortified group was built by the Germans between 1899 and 1906. As a high strategic place during the Annexation and then absorbed by the Maginot Line, the fort bears witness to the history of Franco-German conflicts as much as to its effectiveness through its organization and equipment. Originally, its strategic position was to defend the railroad junction of the second city of Moselle against any French attack. Nowadays, it has no military vocation, but the amicale of the fortified group of Guentrange and the city have allowed its renovation and its transformation into a place of memory.

Enttäuschend. Trotz Zeitungsinformation, dass letzter Einlass um 14.00 Uhr ist, konnten wir bei Ankunft um 13.00 Uhr die Festung nicht mehr besuchen. Stattdessen wurden uns noch 8 EUR für eine Militariabörse abgeknöpft, die 15 Minuten nachdem wir bezahlt hatten zusammengepackt wurde. Am Ende haben wir uns noch kurz das Außengelände angeschaut, war 1.15 h Anfahrt (und dann auch nochmal Hinfahrt) nicht wert.
