Fort de Saint-Héribert, Military fortification in Wépion, Belgium
The Fort de Saint-Héribert extends across 11 hectares of land, featuring concrete structures and defensive positions integrated into the natural landscape.
Built between 1888 and 1892, this fort formed part of the nine fortifications protecting Namur and withstood German bombardments during both World Wars.
The fort maintains exhibitions of military artifacts and photographs, including a memorial album containing 360 images of soldiers who served there.
Visitors can access guided tours during the second weekend of each month from May to September, with additional openings on November 11th.
