Teave
Kiired faktid: See 19. sajandi merekindlus oli osa ulatuslikust Preisi rannikukaitsevõrgustikust, mis ulatus üle 100 kilomeetri. Selle kaheksa meetri paksused tellistest ja graniidist müürid olid loodud vastu pidama raskele mereväe pommitamisele, kuigi kindlus kunagi olulist lahingut ei näinud.
Esiletõstmised: Varjatud keerdtrepp laskub 15 meetrit maa alla endiste püssirohukeldrite võrgustikku, mis on nüüdseks ümber ehitatud õõvastavaks kunstigaleriiks. Kindluse lõunabastion pakub otsest vaadet mööda Curonia maasäärt allapoole - vaatenurk, mille olemasolust vähesed külastajad teadlikud on.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Skip the introductory video and head straight to the underground galleries, which are the real highlight.
- Bring a light jacket even in summer, the underground chambers stay around 12 degrees Celsius year-round.
- The best photo spot is from the northeastern bastion looking out over the Baltic Sea at sunset.
- Visit right when it opens at 10 AM to experience the tunnels without echo distortion from other groups.
