FORT OF VILLEY-LE-SEC

Built not a long times after the 1870 war, the Fort from Villey-le-Sec is included in the defence system « Séré-de-Rivières». This fort has the unique feature of having completely enclosed the village, making Villey-le-Sec the only fortified village in France at the end of the 19th century. The visit will take you through the northern battery and the reduced fortress, set in lush greenery with a breathtaking view over the Côtes de Toul and the Woëvre. Your tour will include two rides on a 0.60-gauge train over a 1,500-meter circuit. Inside the fort, you'll discover impressive stonework and magnificent barracks with perfectly fitted stones.
