The Rosemont Battery (Fort de Rosemont) is a 19th-century military building consisting of six guns hastily constructed during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 to support the Planoise and Chaudanne positions. However, this war did not affect the city and subsequently the battery was never used for military purposes, even during the Second World War. (wikipedia)
