  • Die Kasematte von Wittring in Frankreich gehört zur Maginot-Linie und wurde 1938 erbaut. Sie befindet sich im Verteidigungssektor Saar, Abschnitt Kalhausen, und gehört demzufolge zur so genannten „neuen Front“. Eine der Besonderheiten der Kasematte ist, dass sie mit vier Panzerglocken ausgestattet ist: zwei GFM-Glocken (Beobachter ausgestattet mit Schnellfeuergewehr) und zwei AM-Glocken (arme-mixte = Kombinationswaffe). Weitere Seltenheit: eine der AM-Glocken hat nur eine Scharte. (de)

  • The Casemate de Wittring is a component of the Maginot Line fortifications in northeastern France. It is located in the Fortified Sector of the Sarre section of the line and was associated with Ouvrage Haut-Poirier, a petit ouvrage of the main Line. Wittring has been restored and is operated as a museum. The casemate was armed with a machine gun/anti-tank gun embrasure (JM/AC47), one twin machine gun embrasure, two mixed-arms cloches (AM) and two automatic rifle (GFM-B) cloches. Wittring controlled access to dikes and floodgates in the area that were intended to inundate portions of the Sarre valley to block an invasion from Germany.The commander of the casemate in 1940 was Adjutant-Chef Hillaire, in charge of an element of the 133rd Fortress Infantry Regiment (RIF). The Casernement d'Achen provided peacetime above-ground barracks and support services to Wittring and other positions in the area. (en)
