Old dilapidated stairs
In 1817 the current fortress was built by order of King William I.
The fort played a role in the defence of Liege during the First World War. On 5 August 1914, the Germans bombarded the eastern forts around Liege with infantry and artillery. The attackers were wiped out and the artillery shells had no effect on the reinforced concrete of the forts. Nevertheless, the Germans were able to penetrate through the spaces between the forts. After fierce fighting in the streets of Queue-du-Bois, the hills east of Chartreuse were conquered on 7th August 1914, empty villages were found, the population had fled. The next morning Chartreuse was occupied and the Germans entered Liège via two undestroyed bridges. During the First and Second World Wars, the Fort de la Chartreuse was used as a prison by the Germans.
