Description

Il Forte di Traversette era un forte francese su uno sperone roccioso a circa 2.400 metri di quota che dominava il Colle delle Traversette nelle Alpi Graie a circa 2,7 chilometri a sud del Piccolo San Bernardo che si trova circa 200 metri più in basso.

Il forte venne costruito nel 1630 dal Ducato di Savoia. Nel 1792, durante le guerre rivoluzionarie francesi, il vecchio forte, presidiato da una guarnigione di cinquanta uomini dell'Esercito sabaudo, cadde nelle mani dell'esercito francese nel 1794 e venne ribattezzato Fort Libre.
Divenne definitivamente francese con lo scambio di territori che accompagnò il trattato di Torino nel 1860.
