Artillery Battery No. 3
Fortifications on the beach
At the end of the 19th century, Russian Tsar Alexander III built the fortifications on Liepāja beach. Just a few years after completion, it was realised that the location was a strategic mistake, as the foundations were undermined by the waters of the Baltic Sea. From 1908 onwards, the fort was destroyed again by its builders and blown up several times. Artillery batteries, underground tunnels and gunpowder stores can still be seen today. The ruins of the northern fortress can still be seen on the beach in the Karosta district. Partly in the water, parts have been washed away. The fortifications should only be entered with great caution.
