Fortified Position of Liège - Fort de Fléron

On the backside of the area, one of the last visable remains of the fort can be seen. On the Rue de la Clef (N3). The fort was triangle shaped. When you view the map on side of the text you will still recognise the shape of the triangle in the urban enviroment.

The plaque on the remains:

Ici un des dernies vestiges visibles
du fort de Fléron
bombardé en Mai 1940
Noublion jamais

Translation:

Here is one of the last visable remains of fort de Fléron
shelled in May 1940
We will never forget

Aside the army-emblem of the Régiment fortresse de Liège. The regiment responsible for the fortresses around Liège.

Also the text; amicale des forts Fléron en Evegnée (friends of the fortresses of Fléron and Evegnée).
