Fort de la Croix de Bretagne
Villar-Saint-Pancrace
In 1881, the Croix de Bretagne fort housed 496 men and 4 horses. The fort was armed with 12 cannons and 4 mortars. It comprised several buildings and casemates to house the troops, as well as the food and ammunition required for 6 months' autonomy.
The fort was modernized in the early 20th century, notably to connect it to the telegraph network and improve the firing platforms.
Used during the First World War, it is now abandoned and in its original state.
