The Fort de Mutzig also known as Feste Kaiser Wilhelm II is located near the town of Mutzig in the Bas-Rhin departement of France. It is one of the forts built by Germany at the end of the 19th century to defend Strasbourg. It was the first new fortification built in what was then German territory after the invention of high explosives which rendered earlier masonry fortifications obsolete.
