Fort de la Redoute Ruinée
From Warlike
The Fort de la Redoute Ruinée was a French fort overlooking the Col de la Traversette near La Rosière in the Alps between 1892 and 1945. It was built out of the ruins of the Fort de la Traversette, constructed in 1630 by Savoy. In 1792, during the French Revolutionary Wars, the Savoyards garrisoned the old fort with fifty men. Nonetheless, it fell to the French army in 1794 and was renamed Fort Libre. The fort became permanently French with the exchange of territory that accompanied the Treaty of Turin in 1860.
