Fort Saint-Antoine stands in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté (Doubs), in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Fort Saint-Antoine, also known as Fort Lucotte, stands on a ridge in the Haut-Doubs region, between Lake Saint-Point and the Métabief ski resort. Built in the 19th century as part of the Séré de Rivières defensive system, it was designed to block a southern route around the Pontarlier gap. Visitors can walk through a large polygonal structure surrounded by deep ditches, vaulted casemates and a rampart path leading to former artillery platforms. The site reflects late 19th-century military architecture and remained in use through the Second World War.
