Visits

by La Citadelle

A site visit is opened to the public and maintained thanks to volunteers from “La Citadelle” association. The visit will take you around part of the fortification in a natural environment with a breathtaking view of the Toul and Woëvre valley. Visit includes an exquisite tour aboard the scenic train “Le PetitTrain”. The narrow train track of 0.60m wide, is similar to the one used at the time for military supplies.. Warm clothing is recommended.
