The bastion was built between 1845 and 1855 under Major von Völker, the defensive barracks under Lieutenant Sunday and summed up to 1,611 men. It consists of a three-sided wall with a hollow cross-beam on the Saillant, the Escarpe with a caponniere on the left shoulder, a very strong Bonnet casemate in Saillant and a Halbcaponniere on the right shoulder. In the throat is the big defensive barracks. The Wallenden were bricked and provided with powder magazines. In front of the factory was a wet ditch.

Well-preserved historical building from earlier times and located directly on the Danube. Beautiful to look at with a great setting.
