Fort Oberer Eselsberg Hauptwerk (Werk XXXVI)

Can you feel the breeze rustling through the trees? It's hard to believe that this peaceful place was once a fortress buzzing with military activity. Imagine standing here over a century ago, watching soldiers guard the city. Look over to your left, you’ll spot Werk XXXV, the companion to this fort that formed a strategic alliance. Did you know these walls were designed to withstand cannon fire, made from brick and concrete? And behind you, the city of Ulm stretches out, its safety once ensured by this very fort. These massive walls whisper stories of the past, of a time when Ulm held a key military position. Let the history of this place wash over you.
