Casemate de Wittring

The Casemate de Wittring is a component of the Maginot Line fortifications in northeastern France. It is located in the Fortified Sector of the Sarre section of the line and was associated with Ouvrage Haut-Poirier, a petit ouvrage of the main Line. Wittring has been restored and is operated as a museum.

History
:See Fortified Sector of the Sarre for a broader discussion of the Sarre sector of the Maginot Line. Wittring was attacked by units of the German 262nd Infantry Division on 21 June 1940 during the Battle of France, surrendering the same day after heavy bombardment. Wittring was sold to private owners in 1987, with restoration starting in 1992. The association ''L'Amicale de la Casemate de Wittring'' restored the destroyed entry with 14 cubic meters of concrete, among other less complex work. ==Current condition==
