Ses principaux projets de restauration comprenaient Notre-Dame de Paris la basilique Saint-Denis le Mont Saint-Michel la Sainte-Chapelle et les murs médiévaux de la ville de Carcassonne. Ses écrits ultérieurs ont eu une influence notable sur une nouvelle génération d'architectes dont Antoni Gaudí Louis Sullivan et Frank Lloyd Wright. . Viollet-le-Duc participe également à la défense de Paris pendant la guerre franco-prussienne 1870-1871. Il a été tellement influencé par le conflit que pendant ses dernières années il a décrit la défense idéalisée de la France par l'analogie de l'histoire militaire de Le Roche-Pont un château imaginaire dans Histoire d'une Forteresse Annales d'une forteresse deux fois traduit en anglais. Accessible et bien documenté il est en partie fictif. Annales d'une forteresse a fortement influencé la pensée défensive militaire française.
