Feste Kaiser Wilhelm II - Le fort de Mutzig, un monstre de béton et d'acier

Fort Mutzig is a behemoth of concrete and steel sprawling across 254 hectares. This German fortification, built before the First World War, could house 7,000 soldiers! A veritable city just 25 km from Strasbourg. The fort's association offers tours of only 10% of the site, which gives you an idea of ​​the sheer scale the Emperor intended to create here. A huge thank you to Jérémy, our guide, for his warm welcome and tour; for us, the Guardians of History association, it was like being treated like VIPs! #WW1 #memory #history #worldwar1 #blockhouse #munitions #backrooms #exploration #bunker #mauser #kaiser #wilhelm #feste
