Artilleriværk Chillon

Description

Artilleriværket Chillon for den schweiziske hær ligger ved Chillon-slot på østsiden af Genévesøen i kommunen Veytaux i distriktet Riviera-Pays-d’Enhaut i kanton Vaud. Værket, der blev bygget i 1941, blev taget ud af drift i 1994 og frigivet fra hemmeligholdelse i 2001.
I 1862 udarbejdede oberst Aubert en undersøgelse vedrørende spærringen af Simplon-aksen ved Chillon-slot. Initiativet til byggeriet af værket blev givet af den nye hærposition i Reduit beordret af general Guisan. Artilleriværket Chillon blev anvendt til at styrke forsvarslinjen Genfersee – Store Sankt Bernhard. Spærringsstedet Chillon blev oprettet af bjergbrigade 10 i kløften ved slottet. Ved begyndelsen af aktivtjenesten i 1939 blev der oprettet feltbefestninger i slotshaven.
