Ancien Camp is an abri or infantry shelter associated with the Maginot Line's Alpine extension, the Alpine Line. The position consists of two entry blocks. Neither block was armed. One machine gun cloche and embrasures for a heavy twin machine gun and a light machine gun were built, but not equipped. The blocks are connected by a single large underground gallery.[1]
