Description

Fort Lantin er et af de tolv fæstninger omkring Liège, der blev oprettet til forsvar af den belgiske by Liège i slutningen af det nittende århundrede på initiativ af den belgiske general Henri Alexis Brialmont. Fæstningen ligger nord for byen Lantin.

Fort Lantin ligger ca. 7,5 kilometer fra byens centrum og 160 meter over havets overflade. Nabofæstningen Liers ligger 4 kilometer væk og Fort Loncin 3,25 kilometer væk. Det har formen af en ligebenet trekant med spidsen rettet mod fjenden. Det centrale massiv er omgivet af tre tørre grave, hver 200 meter lange. På fortets halside ligger de vigtigste lokaler for mandskabet, vaskeriet, køkkenet og sanitetsfaciliteterne. Disse lokaler ligger i det centrale massiv samt kontrescarpen. I hjørnerne af den tørre grav ligger kasematter udstyret med lette hurtigskydende kanoner og maskingeværer for at beskyde angribere i graven.
