Fort de Villey-le-Sec

Highlight • Historical Site

Fort Villey-le-sec, built between 1875 and 1879 in the south-east of Toul on a 345 m high hill, represents a unique ensemble in the fortifications of the Serè des Rivières era the hill was excellently suited to observe and combat a possible deployment of enemy troops. Since a wealthy landowner had already resisted expropriation during the construction of Fort de Bourlèmont and the location of Bourlèmont had to be shifted as a result, the French military also feared fierce resistance in the case of Villey-le-sec. In general, expropriation procedures could be carried out expeditiously when required by national security and when the land was vacant. But here it was a complete village with church and cemetery, which made things considerably more difficult. And so it was decided to surround the village with defenses instead of tearing it down.

A good steep hill for me, requires a bit of training to climb it, especially the second part.

View of the Impounded Moselle

Highlight • Viewpoint

A little further towards the barrage you get a better impression of how powerful the river is here. With a bit of luck you can see cormorants.
