    The most impressive part of the fort is the inner fort, formed by two semicircles with a central courtyard. The ground and first floors housed storage areas and troop rooms.

    A dry moat runs around the inner fort, protected by the counterscarp with brick wall and wall openings on the side of the inner fort.

    Hiking

    Experience sports, culture and heritage in Fort 2
    In the Fort 2 recreational area, sport, culture and heritage go hand in hand. The inner fort, the officers' building and the main front building are the bases of many Wommelgem associations. The green edge around Fort 2 is a paradise for walkers and cyclists, and athletes can also enjoy themselves on the football field, athletics track or petanque courts. Fort 2 is home to a number of museums and houses, among other things, the famous cannon gallery; It is not without reason that the fort is known as a museum fort.
