La Grande Redoute (the great redoubt)
Credit
: G.PROST
Description
This small defensive location situated outside of the fort served to protect soldiers outside of the main line of defence. Built in May 1815 under the Napoleonic regime, La Grande Redoute is the only one of the five redoubts planned around the village of Les Rousses that was completed. It served during a battle in July 1815 between 600 French men and 12,000 Austrians. Part of the village was destroyed.
