The Kerfent fort is a Maginot Line fortification located in the Faulquemont fortified sector in Moselle, not far from the former Zimming security barracks. Its name originates from a wood located north of National Route 3. Along with its neighbor, the Bambesch wood, it defended this important passage against a potential invasion. According to Marshal Pétain, this was "the heart of the Maginot Line." However, despite the fifteen blocks planned in the initial designs, this fortification was significantly reduced in size due to budget cuts: the artillery blocks, the separate entrance, and the defensive emplacements for a hypothetical anti-tank ditch were eliminated during construction, ultimately resulting in the building of a simple, small infantry fortification. The main construction work (concrete pouring) was completed in 1932.

The Einseling fortification is a single-block fortified structure of the Maginot Line located in the fortified sector of Faulquemont, between the communes of Bambiderstroff and Longeville-lès-Saint-Avold. Its name comes from the Finselingerberg hill on which it is built. When it was projected by the CORF in the 1930s, the army used old German maps where the Gothic script annotations were misinterpreted: the F in Finseling was transformed into an E.
