Volgograd floating landing

The Volgograd floating landing is a wooden two-deck structure built for water transport operations. This wooden construction was designed to handle both passenger boarding and cargo loading at the water's edge.

The structure was built in 1954 at a shipyard and first served as a river terminal for transport operations. It was relocated to its current location in 1966, where it continued to serve the local community.

The floating landing became a rowing and water sports center after its initial service period ended. Local athletes and sports enthusiasts gathered here regularly to train and compete.

The landing is accessible on foot from the shoreline and offers direct access to the water. Visitors should take care on the wooden structure, especially in wet or slippery conditions.

The structure was designated a cultural heritage site in 2013, only shortly before it was destroyed by fire. This dramatic turn of events highlights how quickly wooden structures can be lost to disaster.
