When Napoleon I noted the problems of defending the French coasts, he decided to implement a vast fortification program. Around a hundred standardized structures, called “model 1811 towers and redoubts”, will be built. One of them was raised in 1812 at Pointe des Espagnes. The point evolved according to the performance of the artillery and the fortifications were improved until the end of the 19th century. The model tower will remain unchanged until the German occupation. The Germans deployed numerous bunkers around the perimeters and leveled the fort's firing platform and deprived it of its parapets and bretèches. https://www.cestenfrance.fr/fort-de-la-pointe-des-Espagnes-1812/
