Discover an atypical link of the Maginot Line consisting of a succession of flood dams and reservoir ponds, now called the "Maginot Aquatic Line".
An artificial flood zone was created between 1932 and 1934 in Moselle, between Hoste and Wittring.
In the room on the dike of the pond of Hoste-Bas, you will discover an ingenious system of siphons, as well as an exhibition on the techniques used to flood an area of about thirty kilometers wide, and the military events that took place there between September 1939 and June 1940.
