== Historical context ==
During The Annexation, Metz, will oscillate between a German garrison of 15,000 and 20,000 men at the beginning of period〔René Bour, ''Histoire de Metz'', 1950, p. 227.〕 and will exceed 25,000 men just before the First World War,〔''L’Express'', no 2937, du 18 au 24 octobre 2007, dossier « Metz en 1900 », Philippe Martin.〕 gradually becoming the first stronghold of German Reich.〔François Roth : ''Metz annexée à l’Empire allemand'', in François-Yves Le Moigne, ''Histoire de Metz'', Privat, Toulouse, 1986, (p.350).〕
The ' completes the Second fortified belt of Metz composed of Festen Wagner (1904-1912), Crown Prince (1899 - 1905), Leipzig (1907–1912), empress (1899-1905), Lorraine (1899-1905), Freiherr von der Goltz (1907–1916), Haeseler (1899-1905), Prince Regent Luitpold (1907-1914) and Infantry-Werk Belle-Croix (1908-1914).
The Group Fortification Yser, or ''Feste Prince Regent Luitpold'', was part of a wider program of fortifications called "Moselstellung", encompassing fortresses scattered between Thionville and Metz in the valley Moselle. The aim of Germany was to protect against a French attack to take back Alsace-Lorraine and Moselle from the German Empire. The fortification system was designed to accommodate the growing advances in artillery since the end of XIXth century. Based on new defensive concepts, such as dispersal and concealment, the fortified group was to be, in case of attack, an impassable barrier for French forces.
