  Any practical realization of entanglement-based quantum communication must be
intrinsically secure and able to span long distances avoiding the need of a
straight line between the communicating parties. The violation of Bell's
inequality offers a method for the certification of quantum links without
knowing the inner workings of the devices. Energy-time entanglement quantum
communication satisfies all these requirements. However, currently there is a
fundamental obstacle with the standard configuration adopted: an intrinsic
geometrical loophole that can be exploited to break the security of the
communication, in addition to other loopholes. Here we show the first
experimental Bell violation with energy-time entanglement distributed over 1 km
of optical fibers that is free of this geometrical loophole. This is achieved
by adopting a new experimental design, and by using an actively stabilized
fiber-based long interferometer. Our results represent an important step
towards long-distance secure quantum communication in optical fibers.
