Built from 1932 to 1934, this structure made it possible to connect by track Reims, Sedan and Metz.
It was part of a group intended to supply the Maginot linePartially destroyed by the French in June 1940, it was repaired by the Germans in 1941; the rails were finally dismantled in 1943 and sent to the Eastern Front.
access: Between Grandpré and Varennes-en-Argonne on the D 946, take the road towards Exermont. Once in the village, take the first left. You will cross a farmyard before reaching a small valley. Continue for 1 km before arriving at the fortification. Be careful and drive slowly!
