- The Fortified Sector of Lille (Secteur Fortifié de Lille) was the French military organization that in 1940 controlled the section of the French border with Belgium opposite Lille. The sector was part of a system of fortifications that included the Maginot Line in other sectors. In the case of the Lille sector, no large fortifications of the kind typified by the Maginot Line were built in the area. Fortifications were confined to a total of 65 blockhouses and 23 infantry shelters within a few kilometers of the border, mainly between Roubaix and Tourcoing and the border. The Fortified Sector of Lille was bordered on the east by the Fortified Sector of the Escaut and on the west by the Fortified Sector of Flanders. The sector figured in the Pillbox affair of 1939-40. It was quickly overrun by German forces during the Battle of France. (en)
- Le secteur défensif de Lille, puis secteur fortifié de Lille, est une partie de la ligne Maginot, situé entre le secteur fortifié des Flandres et le secteur fortifié de l'Escaut. Il forme une ligne le long de la frontière franco-belge, en arc de cercle autour de l'agglomération de Lille-Roubaix-Tourcoing, d'Armentières à Wabempré près de Maulde (dans le Nord). Les fortifications du secteur sont plutôt légères.(
