Tips

Pierre-francois

It was built from 1883 to 1886 by the Adrien Hallier company and takes its name Boulanger from the General of the Empire, Michel Ordener.

Fort Ordener was built at the same time and with the aim of covering Fort Bessoncourt. Its role was to control the roads coming from Switzerland as well as the Mulhouse railway.

From 1893 this fort was connected to a number of other forts around Belfort by a strategic railway.

During the two World Wars Fort Ordener was inactive. It will then be used as an ammunition depot for the army.

Fort Ordener was bought by the municipality of Vézelois in 1999. The association "Le Renouveau du Fort de Vézelois" takes care of the restoration and communication around the fort.
