Ruine einer Festung nach Plänen von Vauban

Überreste eines alten Fortes, das 1688 von Vauban von Grund auf neu errichtet wurde.

Rechteckige Zitadelle mit vier Bastionen, vier Halbmonden und einem gedeckten Weg mit vorspringenden und einspringenden Waffenplätzen. Die Garnison konnte bis zu 2.000 Mann fassen. Die Festungsanlage umfasst ein Hauptfort, das Fort Carré, und zwei Nebenforts. Diese bildeten zwei Brückenköpfe, eines ins elsässische (Fort Alsace) und eines ins badische (Fort Marquisat). In und um das Fort sind Informationstafeln aufgestellt, die den Besuchern die Geschichte und die Bedeutung des Ortes näher bringen.
