The construction of Fort Charlemont began in 1555 by order of Emperor Charles V. It dominates Givet and the Meuse valley. The fort and its defences have been modified several times. Between around 1600 and 1675, the Spanish expanded the fort. In 1678, it was conquered by the French army of King Louis XIV. The town fell to France in 1697. Vauban was commissioned to expand the complex and improve the works. In 1874, several forts on the border were modified based on the ideas of Séré de Rivières, including this fort. The bastions were rebuilt and an underground staircase with several hundred steps was dug into the rock. The staircase connects the fort to a railway tunnel. In this way, the fort could be supplied with ammunition, soldiers and equipment, all out of sight of the enemy and invulnerable to enemy artillery fire. In 2009, the French army transferred the fort to the municipality of Givet.

The Chooz nuclear power plant has three pressurised water reactors and is just as unattractive as the Tihange nuclear power plant downstream in Belgium.
