    Some of the buildings belonging to the fortress are still there. You can find them at the edge of the forest and also between the trees.

      The fortress was built in 1938 and 1939 by the Dutch army as part of the Peel Raamstelling to stop the expected German advance. The fortress had 7 heavy bunkers, trenches, battle pits and other barricades. It remained unused in 1940.
