Casemates of Huberbusch

A unique experience can be discovered in the Hobling forest (commune of Chémery-les-Deux, 10 minutes from Bouzonville). The footsteps of the French soldiers can still be heard in the heart of these casemates of the Maginot Line.

The enthusiastic members of the association have faithfully and meticulously reconstructed the trenches that linked the two casemates of the Huberbusch. With free access, you can see at any time, during a walk in the forest for example (a hiking trail runs nearby), the living conditions of the French soldier of 1940.

The Huberbusch casemates, which have been undergoing restoration since 2011, can be visited all year round, by appointment: living conditions, equipment and historical anecdotes will be told to you with passion by the young volunteers of the association.

But there is one particular occasion, when you must discover this piece of French history : that is during the historical re-enactment days. You will be surrounded by French, German and English soldiers, but also civilians, installed in bivouacs, with their equipment (war and civilian), vehicles of all types... Authenticity guaranteed!
