Take a moment to pause between the ossuary and this stone garden; tranquility reigns here. Don't forget to thank our brave soldiers for their ultimate sacrifice.

Built between 1876 and 1879 as part of the defensive belt around Verdun. The fort played a crucial role during the Battle of Verdun (1916), especially in July when German troops almost took it. Strategically located on a hill, it offered a view of the Meuse valley and was connected to other forts by telephone lines. The fort contained an underground shelter (abri sous roc) and a Bussière tower with a 155 mm gun. Despite heavy shelling, it remained in French hands and became a symbol of steadfastness.
