A cool place that you can visit on the way, take a walk, climb the fort and even go inside. There is a memorial nearby.
From above, you can even see the border if desired)
Good day.The fort of the First World War.We were here after a trip to the Augustovsky Canal.Of course, an engineering structure of this scale is admirable.Loopholes for shooters, machine gunners and artelerists.Everything is in concrete.The Second World War did not spare him either.I definitely recommend you to visit.Be careful on the ruins.Very dangerous
It is convenient to visit if there is a car, there is a small parking lot on the side of the road next to the highway. The place is well maintained, but the structure itself is untouched, in its original form, without restoration. There are advantages to this. If you want to climb inside, take a lantern and look at your feet so as not to fall through to the floor below. The fort is quite badly destroyed, visually it is from explosions from the inside, and not from the impact from the outside.
For fans of military subjects - definitely visit - you can go down - something like a cave - generally interesting + next to the monument to the Grieving Mother is also beautiful
A lot of Rowan trees have grown in the cracks of concrete walls 1-2 meters thick that were obviously formed after the explosions, and there are a lot of strawberries on the slopes, near the 2nd and near the 1st defensive Forts. It's like some kind of memorial berry...
it's worth visiting, honoring with Memory and Flowers those who stood for the Fatherland, for the Motherland, for Relatives and Friends.
One of the two well-preserved Grodno forts, it was built in the period 1912-1915. It is open for inspection, but there is a sign "do not enter, it is dangerous for life."
Family visit to the Grodno fortress. The child is delighted. It's interesting to climb, to see. But some may remain dissatisfied after examining a "piece of a dilapidated wall."..
A powerful building, I can't imagine how it could have been built at the beginning of the last century. Nearby there is a monument to the soldiers of the Great Patriotic War and crosses in memory of the Polish wars and the wars from Chelyabinsk of the First World War
For fans of military history, it is a must-visit, the place is gentrified, the grass is mowed, the main thing is to read the signs and not climb where it is impossible)
One of the 3 forts, which is even more or less intact, after the other 2 collapsed, they did not dare to go inside because it was dark and in places cracks with my head
You can go inside, but be careful, there may be bats in the caves. You will fully immerse yourself in the times of war. It's very cool to climb the stones of the fort
Ruins. Those interested can walk around the catacombs. But there are sinkholes and rubble. You need to be prepared. The outside is slightly preserved. Check-in from the side of the asphalt road, the path to the monument of the Grieving mother. And then there's a path to the left. The navigator does not behave correctly at all, it leads to a gardening partnership. It's better to find your own way.
A historical landmark that has been preserved since the First World War, it was possible to clean up a little, but alas, the place is almost abandoned, many bushes and trees are growing, talatites and stalatites have already formed inside, a lot of garbage.... The place itself is beautiful and feels the power of the seasoned years. You can enter both inside and around
A grand fort. There are a little missing explanatory signs indicating how it all functioned.
