7.2 Schoenenbourg Fort

This fort was left abandoned until some men decided to make it into a museum. Very mind-blowing experience to visit this site. Civilians dug out all the tunnels (not machines) over a 9 month period and were paid by the military. The fort was used for about 1 month until the Germans bombed it heavilly. The French Commander of the fort wanted to continue fighting but he was ordered to surrender by his superior. The commander believed in the motto of the fort was "On ne passe pas" meaning "no-one passes." After the French surrendered, the Germans did not use the fort.Meer informatie

ReizigerRather unexpected to see modern features such as electricity production and railway tracks and train. And tunnels dug by raw manpower. Quite mind-boggling.

Reiziger This makes the sleeping accommodations you had the past several weeks, look a whole lot better. 😴
