Un lieu unique dans l\u2019histoire de la Ligne Maginot<\/span><\/h2>\n

Parmi tous les ouvrages de la Ligne Maginot, l\u2019Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9 occupe une place particuli\u00e8re. Situ\u00e9 \u00e0 proximit\u00e9 de la fronti\u00e8re belge, dans le d\u00e9partement des Ardennes, ce fort militaire est aujourd\u2019hui connu pour avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 le seul ouvrage de la Ligne Maginot dont l\u2019\u00e9quipage a enti\u00e8rement p\u00e9ri au combat durant la campagne de France de mai 1940.<\/p>\n

Lieu de m\u00e9moire particuli\u00e8rement \u00e9mouvant, l\u2019Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9 t\u00e9moigne du courage des soldats fran\u00e7ais qui d\u00e9fendirent leur position jusqu\u2019au bout face \u00e0 l\u2019avanc\u00e9e allemande.<\/p>\n

Aujourd\u2019hui ouvert \u00e0 la visite, ce site historique constitue l\u2019un des t\u00e9moignages les plus marquants de la Seconde Guerre mondiale et de l\u2019histoire de la Ligne Maginot.<\/p>\n

La construction de l\u2019Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9<\/span><\/h2>\n

L\u2019Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9 est construit dans les ann\u00e9es 1930 dans le cadre du programme de fortifications de la Ligne Maginot.<\/p>\n

Contrairement aux grands ouvrages d\u2019artillerie comme le Fort de Fermont, la Fert\u00e9 appartient \u00e0 la cat\u00e9gorie des petits ouvrages d\u2019infanterie.<\/p>\n

Sa mission consiste principalement \u00e0 :<\/p>\n

    \n
  • surveiller la fronti\u00e8re,<\/li>\n
  • contr\u00f4ler les axes de passage,<\/li>\n
  • prot\u00e9ger le secteur de Montm\u00e9dy,<\/li>\n
  • soutenir les autres positions d\u00e9fensives environnantes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    L\u2019ouvrage est constitu\u00e9 de deux blocs de combat reli\u00e9s par des galeries souterraines. Malgr\u00e9 ses dimensions plus modestes que certains grands forts de la Ligne Maginot, il repr\u00e9sente une position strat\u00e9gique importante dans le dispositif d\u00e9fensif fran\u00e7ais.<\/p>\n

    Une position strat\u00e9gique dans le secteur de Montm\u00e9dy<\/span><\/h2>\n

    L\u2019Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9 fait partie du secteur fortifi\u00e9 de Montm\u00e9dy, situ\u00e9 \u00e0 proximit\u00e9 imm\u00e9diate des fronti\u00e8res belge et luxembourgeoise.<\/p>\n

    Cette r\u00e9gion constitue historiquement l\u2019un des principaux axes de passage des arm\u00e9es venant du nord de l\u2019Europe.<\/p>\n

    Les responsables militaires fran\u00e7ais souhaitent donc y installer plusieurs positions fortifi\u00e9es capables de ralentir une offensive ennemie et de prot\u00e9ger les voies de communication strat\u00e9giques.<\/p>\n

    La Fert\u00e9 participe pleinement \u00e0 cette mission gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 ses postes d\u2019observation et \u00e0 ses \u00e9quipements de d\u00e9fense.<\/p>\n

    Les combats de mai 1940<\/span><\/h2>\n

    L\u2019histoire de l\u2019Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9 est indissociable des \u00e9v\u00e9nements dramatiques de mai 1940.<\/p>\n

    Apr\u00e8s le d\u00e9clenchement de l\u2019offensive allemande \u00e0 travers la Belgique et les Ardennes, les forces fran\u00e7aises doivent faire face \u00e0 une progression extr\u00eamement rapide des unit\u00e9s ennemies.<\/p>\n

    \u00c0 partir du 18 mai 1940, l\u2019Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9 se retrouve progressivement isol\u00e9.<\/p>\n

    Les troupes allemandes concentrent alors leurs attaques sur la position. L\u2019artillerie lourde et les canons antichars bombardent intensivement les blocs de combat.<\/p>\n

    Malgr\u00e9 les d\u00e9g\u00e2ts, l\u2019\u00e9quipage continue de r\u00e9sister.<\/p>\n

    Les d\u00e9fenseurs poursuivent le combat alors m\u00eame que les positions voisines tombent les unes apr\u00e8s les autres.<\/p>\n

          Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9le fort de la Ligne Maginot marqu\u00e9 par la trag\u00e9die de 1940Un lieu unique dans l\u2019histoire de la Ligne Maginot Parmi tous les ouvrages de la Ligne Maginot, l\u2019Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9 occupe une place particuli\u00e8re. Situ\u00e9 \u00e0 proximit\u00e9 de la fronti\u00e8re belge, dans le d\u00e9partement des Ardennes, ce fort militaire est aujourd\u2019hui connu pour avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 le seul ouvrage de la Ligne Maginot dont l\u2019\u00e9quipage a enti\u00e8rement p\u00e9ri au combat durant la campagne de France de mai 1940.
