Fort Biehler, Military fortification in Wiesbaden, Germany

Fort Biehler stands as a military structure with remaining walls and foundations spread across a designated civil defense training area in Wiesbaden.

Built between 1880 and 1884, the fort received its name in 1885 after Hans Alexis von Biehler, who led the Prussian Engineering Corps.

The fort represents German military engineering principles of the late 19th century, incorporating both long-range and close combat defensive capabilities.

Current access to Fort Biehler requires special permission as the site functions as a training ground for civil defense operations since 1956.

The fort maintains more structural elements than similar fortifications in Cologne, despite partial demolition orders executed in 1927.
