Association de l'Ouvrage du Michelsberg Gros ouvrage du Michelsberg

Michelsberg was one of the Maginot Line’s large artillery forts and it is now open to the public. It still contains its original equipment and a tour reveals the underground world of the Maginot Line, since the fort lies at a depth of 30 metres below the ground. There are hundreds of metres of galleries along which a train ran. There is also an ultra modern kitchen and a power plant with its original diesel engines still in working order. Visitors are shown the command post, the barracks and a battle garrison containing the largest type of turret, weighing 265 tonnes.
