The Ouvrage La Ferté was a small fort on the Maginot Line that saw heavy fighting during the German blitzkrieg against France in May, 1940. The entire garrison, 104 French soldiers and three officers, were killed in the fighting. The ouvrage has been preserved just as it was after the attack, pockmarked with holes from the German shells.
