A strong remnant of the Second World War, dating from 1933, a defense system for the railroads and the national road.

Overlooking Modane, Fort de Saint-Gobain is part of the Maginot Line of the Alps, built between 1933 and 1939 to watch over the road and railroad to Italy. Comprising five blocks linked by 250 m of underground galleries, it could house 150 soldiers in total autonomy. Now open to visitors, it can be explored along a signposted route. The fresh, unspoilt atmosphere plunges you into the military life of the 1930s. An unforgettable stopover, between memory and heritage, in the heart of the Maurienne mountains.

Une superbe expérience! Si vous êtes dans le coin et que vous aimez les anciens ouvrages militaires allez y ça vaut le coup d'oeil! Le prix est dérisoire (8€ par adulte et gratuit jusqu'à 15 ans!). Le fort a encore une bonne partie de ses meubles et machinerie. Un moment magique où on remonte le temps et où on peut découvrir les conditions de vie des militaires qui occupaient le fort. Merci a l'association de continuer à faire vivre l'histoire de notre pays et nous partager tout cela.

Zelo zanimivo za obiskati. Vstopnica za odrasle je 8€, za mladino do 15 let zastonj.
Poučno, opisi so tudi v italijanščini in angleščini. Ogled traja približno 1h. Priporočam!
