List of Maginot Line ouvrages
Here is the list of all ouvrages of the Maginot Line, organized by sector and type of fortification. Ouvrage translates as "works" in English: published documents in both English and French refer to these fortifications in this manner, rather than as "forts". An ouvrage typically consists of a series of concrete-encased strongpoints, linked by underground tunnels.
For a list of the ouvrages of the Alpine Line, or Little Maginot Line, see List of Alpine Line ouvrages.
