The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Ce corps de garde crénelé, modèle 1846 n°3, a été construit en 1858 pour compléter une batterie de Vauban, et abandonné dès 1870. Il a été altéré par sa transformation en habitation (percement de fenêtres, adjonction d'une toiture). Transformé en parc d'agrément, le site ne garde aucune trace des dispositions anciennes.

This crenellated guard house, model 1846 no. 3, was built in 1858 to complement a Vauban battery, and abandoned as early as 1870. It was altered by its conversion to a dwelling (piercing of windows, addition of a roof). Transformed into a pleasure park, the site retains no trace of the old dispositions.
