Sestroretsk arsenal, Industrial heritage complex in Sestroretsk, Russia.
The Sestroretsk arsenal consists of manufacturing buildings positioned along the Gulf of Finland coast, featuring brick architecture from multiple construction periods.
Peter the Great established this munitions factory in 1714 as part of his efforts to strengthen Russian military capabilities in the northwestern region.
The facility represents the evolution of Russian industrial development, with sections dedicated to weapons production and tool manufacturing throughout three centuries.
