Fusternberg Fort (Wesel)
Fort Fusternberg+
Fort Fusternberg is located in the Fusternberg district, on Fusternberger Straße, east of Wesel city center, and served to secure the railway lines leading south and east from the city. Of the fort itself, only the Reduit and the right caponier remain after the demolitions of the 1920s.
The Catholic Church of the Holy Angels rises above the Reduit, its crypt forming the upper floor of the Reduit. On the lower floor, there is a remarkable exhibition on the history of the church.
