The GMDP Agency is pleased that its team, of which it is the Agent, has been selected by the City of Briançon for the mission “Study programming-transformation of the Fort des Trois Têtes”...
The Fort des Trois Têtes is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as part of the Vauban Network and classified as a Historic Monument, as a registered site.
This magnificent site, overlooking the old town of Briançon, was initiated by Vauban and built from 1718, with a total area of nearly 20,000 m². The Fort was abandoned by the Army 30 years ago.
The City of Briançon intends to use this potential to respond to the growing land tension in tourist areas which is leading to a crisis in access to housing, and in particular seasonal housing, a major driver of the local economy in the mountains.
The potential of hosting the Winter Olympic Games in 2030 represents an opportunity to accelerate the project, by establishing the Olympic village in the fort (phase 1) and then guaranteeing a lasting legacy through the creation of a sustainable district (phase 2).
