Forts de Liège - Fléron Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Lion & Aquaria: I decided to quit geocaching and so we today took away this cache.
When we found it, the "Team Myth" Coin was inside the cache, but the "Mapamundi Geocoin" wasn't, although no-one had logged (online and logbook) the cache since the coins were placed into the cache.
I'm really sad that so many cachers had logged there visit on the papers insinde the ciste, although both boxes were marked correctly and I told about the other box in the listing [:(]
Thanks for every visit of this cache and I hope you enjoyed your tour!

Geocache Description:

In the 19th century (1887 - 1892) 12 forts were built around Liège (Lüttich / Luik) to protect this important city against attackers from each direction. For WWII 4 more forts were added. This is one of these 12 + 4 forts around Liège: The fort Fléron

The fort Fléron is located about 8km south-eastern of Liége. It's area is about 12 hectare so it is one of the bigger ones. It is formed like a triangle to minimize the attackable surface of walls.

On the area of this fort a housing estate has been built. You can still see the hillock which is typical for every fort. The only part which can still bee seen is the ventilation tower which was added when this fort was prepared for WWII.

The cache is located nearby this tower.

Watch out! Next to the cache (at the same tree) a "ciste" is hidden. The cache is a Lock & Lock-Box. The ciste is a damaged and wet icecream-box.
Please log in the correct one and don't place TBs or Coins in the ciste!
