Tiraspol Fortress, Military fortress in Tiraspol, Moldova.
The stone fortress stands on the left bank of the Dniester River, featuring defensive walls, towers, and military structures spanning across the terrain.
Built between 1792 and 1793 under Alexander Suvorov's command, the fortress served as a crucial defense point for the Russian Empire's southern borders.

Guided tours of the fortress operate daily, with information panels in multiple languages explaining the architectural and military features.
The fortress maintains its original 18th-century layout and continues to function as an active cultural center in the disputed territory of Transnistria.
