Description

In the 19th century (1887 - 1892) 12 forts were built around Liège (Lüttich / Luik) to protect this important city against attackers from each direction. For WWII 4 more forts were added. This is one of these 12 + 4 forts around Liège: The fort Pontisse

The fort Pontisse is located about 7kms north-eastern from the center of Liège. It's area is about 12 hectare so it is one of the bigger ones. It is formed like a rectangle.

The fort seems to be intact. Today it houses the "Donkey Oasis".
