Discovering fortified works dating from the Second World War.

Two forts located on either side of the gorge in Valangin can be visited to understand the daily life of the soldiers ready to resist in case of an attack. Through a discreet forest entrance, you will penetrate into a succession of concrete corridors, firing chambers or various rooms that bear witness to the life of the soldiers. A unique opportunity to discover places kept secret for more than 70 years!
