Fort Plappeville, renamed Fort Alvensleben in 1872, is a military installation northwest of Metz. It is part of the first fortified belt of Metz, built during the Second Empire by Napoleon III. The first fortified belt of Metz consists of the forts Saint-Privat (1870), Queleu (1867), Bordes (1870), Saint-Julien (1867), Gambetta, Déroulède, Decaen, Plappeville (1867), and Saint-Quentin (1867). Most of them were still unfinished in 1870, when the Franco-Prussian War broke out.

Great place to rest and reflect. The tree is located in a forest that is criss-crossed by sharp iron posts along a former defense line.

You can imagine that without the forest there would have been a good view of Metz. I recommend going down the side of the building because the stonework is very impressive.
