In another part of the city the government army retook possession of the fortress on Mont-Valérien, after the Prussian troops had left. This fort is about two kilometers from Paris and is part of the first defensive belt made up of sixteen fortresses. If the third belt is about 20 kilometers from the capital, the first belt is right around the city.
