  • Le secteur fortifié de Rohrbach est une partie de la ligne Maginot, situé entre le secteur fortifié de la Sarre à l'ouest et le secteur fortifié des Vosges à l'est. Il forme une ligne le long de la frontière franco-allemande, juste au nord de Rohrbach-lès-Bitche et de Bitche, de Singling à Sturzelbronn (dans la Moselle). Les fortifications du secteur sont puissantes, mais toute sa moitié occidentale est dépourvue d'ouvrage d'artillerie.( Pour un article plus général, voir Ligne Maginot. ) (fr)
