Евгеньевское укрепление, Military fortification in Chirkey, Russia.

The fortress stands on elevated ground near Chirkey village, featuring thick stone walls and defensive structures designed for territorial control.

The Yevgeniyevskoye fortification was constructed during the expansion of Russian military presence in Dagestan to establish control over the region.

The structure represents the military engineering traditions of Russian imperial forces and local Dagestani construction methods of the period.

Visitors need to obtain permits from local authorities to access the fortification site, which opens for guided tours from April through October.

The fortress contains architectural elements that combine Russian military engineering with regional stone masonry techniques specific to the Caucasus mountains.
