This is a spot with tracks going in all directions on old military trenches. There are transitions of all sizes and at least one small drop.

🛡️ **Ouvrage du Hackenberg** – The Largest Fortification of the Maginot Line** The **Ouvrage du Hackenberg** near **Veckring** is the most impressive and largest fortification of the **Maginot Line** – a real must-see for history buffs. Built between 1929 and 1935, it includes: 🔩 **17 combat and entry blocks**, 🚇 over **10 km of underground tunnels**, 🚂 an **internal electric railway**, ⚙️ barracks, ammunition depots, a hospital, and a power supply. During World War II, the fort was combat-ready, but was evacuated without a fight after the armistice in 1940. The French Army later reused the facility during the Cold War. 🎟️ Today, Hackenberg has been beautifully restored and can be visited on guided tours – including a ride on the original narrow-gauge railway. Tip: Be sure to take a guided tour – it lasts about two hours. The underground coolness is pleasant even in summer! It's ideal for a half-day excursion with a historical twist.

The Hackenberg structure is one of the largest fortifications of the Maginot Line in France. This gigantic underground complex, built between 1929 and 1935, is made up of 19 blocks connected by kilometers of tunnels. You can explore the surface of the site, where you will see the impressive anti-tank wall, the artillery casemates and the Hackenberg Chapel. You can also take a guided tour of the interior, aboard a small train, and discover the living quarters, the power station and the ammunition depot of the fort. The Hackenberg Ouvrage is a fascinating place to discover the history and technology of the interwar period.
