Ouvrage Bois-du-Four
Ouvrage Bois-du-Four is a lesser work (''petit ouvrage'') in the Fortified Sector of the Crusnes of the Maginot Line. The ouvrage consists of a single large combat block without an underground gallery system, and is located between ''petit ouvrage'' Mauvais-Bois and ''gros ouvrage'' Bréhain, facing Luxembourg. A planned expansion, never carried out, was intended to enlarge Bois-du-Four into a fully equipped ''gros ouvrage''. Bois-du-Four saw little action in either the Battle of France in 1940 or the Lorraine Campaign of 1944. It is preserved by the community of Villers-la-Montagne and may be visited.
== Design and construction ==
Bois-du-Four was approved for construction in May 1931. It was completed at a cost of 9 million francs by the contractor Monod of Paris.〔Mary, Tome 1, p. 52〕 It was designed as a unitary double casemate, occupying a prominent rise in a cleared area. In a second phase, Bois-du-Four was to be expanded to a plan that would result in a close resemblance to its neighbor Bréhain, with five additional blocks mounting artillery, as well as remote entrances for munitions and personnel, and an extensive network of deep underground galleries. The rise in tensions between France and Germany in the late 1930s prevented this second phase from being pursued.〔Mary, Tome 3, pp. 84–86〕
