Watch out - there is a fort here!
From 1860 the government built a defensive belt around the city of Antwerp. It consisted of a city wall and eight forts and was state of the art in defense technology for the time. In the meantime the city walls have disappeared and only the fortresses remain.
Even today the fort is a bulwark - for environmental protection. There is an "organic class" that organizes nature-educational events, beehives and sleeping places for bats in summer as well as hibernation opportunities.

Fort 5 had to ensure the defense of the Mechelen-Antwerp track. After 1906 it was partly reinforced with concrete.
It is the only fort where people lived during the First World War
were executed. Fort 5, together with Hof Ter Linden, forms one
large green area of almost 90 hectares.
