The Mont Bart viewpoint is a belvedere located on the top of a hill which houses a 19th century fort, built as part of the Séré de Rivières fortification system. From the fort's belvederes, you benefit from a panoramic view of the Pays de Montbéliard and the Alsace plain.

The Mont Bart fort is a 19th century fortification which dominates the Doubs and Allan valleys. The fort is part of the Séré de Rivières fortification system, built to protect French territory from a possible German invasion after the War of 1870. You can explore the fort and its surroundings, including the barracks, the bakery, the wine cellar magazines and the observation post. The fort is open to visitors from April to October, except Mondays.
