The fort was completed in 1914, after the outbreak of World War I, on the basis of an earlier fortification. It was built on a pentagonal plan, with barracks in the neck section on the left side of the axis, and an ammunition depot on the right. Infantry positions were placed around the entire perimeter of the rampart, secured by a stone breastwork.
