Fort de Bilt, Military fort from the New Dutch Waterline in Utrecht, Netherlands.
The fortress contains brick structures, concrete machine gun casemates, a guardhouse from 1850, and bombproof barracks constructed in 1875.
Between 1816 and 1819, Fort de Bilt was constructed to protect the eastern approach to Utrecht along the Biltse street road.
The Memorial Monument Fort de Bilt, created in 1949 by Leo Jungblut, commemorates 140 resistance fighters executed during World War II.
The northern section of Fort de Bilt belongs to Utrecht municipality, while the southern part serves the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee.
In 1929, the Biltse street road was built directly through the fort, dividing the complex into two separate sections.
