Fort de Noisy

Fort de Noisy features thick stone walls, underground passages, and strategic observation points positioned along the eastern perimeter of Paris defensive system.

Construction of the fort began in 1874 as part of the Séré de Rivières fortification system, designed to protect Paris following the Franco-Prussian War.

The fort represents a significant example of 19th-century French military engineering, demonstrating the architectural principles used for national defense installations.

The structure remains closed to public access, though its exterior walls and general layout can be observed from several vantage points in Romainville.

Natural vegetation has gradually integrated with the fort's architecture, creating patterns where roots and plants intertwine with the military stonework.
