Over de locatie

Fort de Metz-Queuleu

Moselle

Grand Est

This place housed a special camp of the Gestapo during the second annexation in Moselle.
Fort de Queuleu, located east of Metz, was built between 1868 and 1870 as part of the city’s first fortified belt, according to the plans of the Séré de Rivières system. It was reinforced by the Germans after 1871 and renamed Feste Goeben.
During the Second World War, the fort served as a special internment camp (Sonderlager) for the Gestapo between 1943 and 1944\. About 1,500 to 1,800 people, mainly resistance fighters, were held there in inhumane conditions. Thirty-six died there, and four managed to escape. The fort was evacuated in August 1944, and most of the prisoners transferred to concentration camps.
Today, the fort of Queuleu is a place of memory dedicated to the Resistance and the Deportation. It is open to the public during guided tours and hosts commemorative exhibitions.
