Ouvrage Schiesseck is a gros ouvrage of the Maginot Line, located near Bitche in the French département of Moselle. Schiesseck is adjoined by gros ouvrage Simserhof and petit ouvrage Otterbiel, all part of the Fortified Sector of Rohrbach, and faces the German frontier. Schiesseck saw comparatively little activity during the Battle of France, surrendering with other positions in its sector on 30 June 1940. During the Lorraine Campaign of 1944 Schiesseck was occupied by German forces and presented a point of resistance to American advances, requiring heavy bombardment and infantry assaults by engineer units to capture. The area was abandoned during the Battle of the Bulge, but was recaptured in March 1945. In the 1950s Schiesseck was repaired as part of a program to re-arm the Maginot Line

  • L'ouvrage du Schiesseck est un ouvrage fortifié de la ligne Maginot, situé sur la commune de Bitche, dans le département de la Moselle. C'est un gros ouvrage d'artillerie, comptant onze blocs. Construit à partir de 1929, l'ouvrage a été épargné par les combats de juin 1940, mais pas par ceux de décembre 1944 ; il a été partiellement réparé au début de la guerre froide. (fr)
