Historique
Deux observatoires bétonnés, situés sur les deux points hauts de la commune, orientés l'un vers le nord-est et l'autre vers les Vosges. Le premier est flanqué de deux ailes de soutien et d'une allée d'accès. Le second, d'une plus grande élévation, distant d'un kilomètre, répond à un plan tréflé à deux allées d'accès.

Two concrete observation posts, situated on the two high points of the commune, one oriented towards the north-east and the other towards the Vosges. The first is flanked by two supporting wings and an access path. The second, of greater elevation, distant one kilometre away, responds to a trefoil plan with two access paths.
