The Forts of the second ring of Ile de France was built between 1874 and 1885 to protect the capital following the Prussian invasion of 1870. Today, forgotten and no real heritage status, they escape any device classification (inventories of sites ...) and thus constitute spaces where multiple development projects can be considered. However, while it is allowed in these places of memory? What are the trails to explore for economic recovery they found a "new life", how to simultaneously preserve evidence of history and by what means the issue?
The various media (blogs, websites, ...) devoted to military history sites, where attendance is rising, are the emerging possibility of a new tourism theme. This could be developed through regional dialogue and engagement around an elected joint governance of heritage as a whole: a "Way of the forts of Ile de France." Make this forgotten heritage means to fight against the commoditization of the contemporary landscape through inclusion in planning documents and in the spaces constituting the green belt would encourage initiatives contributing to its development and its animation.
Vector social integration and professional development creates wealth and employment. The integration projects in the field of restoration of heritage buildings provide an opportunity for people with social problems, through learning, to acquire the skills of a trade, access to employment and contribute to the preservation of traditional skills. But it is necessary for it to explore and control the sources of funding: EU funds, national, regional, local as well as sponsorship opportunities.
"Heritage is increasingly a popular appropriation" says Philippe Nachbar, Senator of the Meurthe-et-Moselle, author of the report "Culture - Heritage - Transmission of knowledge published in 2007. Heritage embodies in fact the dimension that guides all the others because it carries with it what we seek: the maintenance of markers and the transmission of memory that must be the foundation of urban policy at a time when the uprooting of populations and the loss of landmarks are major social events.
