Fort de Dave
Fort de Dave was built between 1888 and 1892. The structure is made entirely of unreinforced concrete, which was quite unusual at the time. The fort was heavily bombed during the First World War and modernised in the 1930s. The fort also saw combat in May 1940, when it was captured by the Germans.
