Abri is forbidden access. Still, it gives an impression of what war violence can do.

Bunker system (casemate), only with the utmost caution and light source to enter (the brightness in the photos - have been created with flash - deceive about how dark it is in the system really)! Danger of falling through shafts in the ground !!! It is better not to let children into the interior of the facility; if it does, please always supervise! In addition to historically interested hikers, who want to get an impression of the impact of the artillery fire on the fortification in the Battle of Verdun (1916), rare bats can be observed (see photo).

This bunker facility is certainly not a risk-free area... bringing your own light source is an absolutely sensible thought
