Fort Ducrot, Military fortress in Mundolsheim, France.
Fort Ducrot features a dry moat and contains multiple passages that demonstrate advanced military architectural principles from the nineteenth century.
Originally named Feste Mundolsheimer Kopf, the fortress became part of fourteen fortifications ordered by General von Moltke after Strasbourg fell in 1870.
The fortress represents a period of alternating French and German control, receiving different names under each administration until its final designation as Fort Ducrot.
The municipality of Mundolsheim maintains the fortress while an association called Les amis du fort Ducrot conducts restoration work since 2010.
The fort belongs to a discontinued series of thirty-six planned fortifications, with only fourteen structures completed around Strasbourg.
