Description

Artillery structure of the Maginot Alpine Line, registered MH on 25/08/2016.
A fort of the famous Alpine Maginot line. This structure still belongs to the Defence Department, and has been particularly well preserved in its original condition. With its tour, it participated in the halt of the Italian advance in June 1940, and provided fire support during the Authion battle against the Germans in 1945. It still has all its equipment, and is in full working order. A reading table near the paraglider launch and several interpretation panels are installed at the military structure. No reservations for individual visits.
