Description

Fort Eben-Emael is a former Belgian defensive fortress near Liège, built in the 1930s as part of the ring of forts protecting the city. Once reputed to be impregnable and among the largest fortresses in the world, with seventeen underground bunkers linked by tunnels, it now draws visitors interested in military history and its stark concrete architecture.
