Լոցմայստերական դիտակետ, Historical lookout post in Rostov-on-Don, Russia

The Pilot's Observation Post is a vertical structure on the Don River's bank with observation platforms and maritime design features. From these viewing points, you can see across the river and watch the flow of water below.

Built in 1890, the structure served as a strategic point for watching river traffic and guiding ships through the Don's waterways. It played an important role in helping vessels navigate safely through the region.

The building reflects Rostov-on-Don's connection to river shipping through its design and materials, showing how the city relied on the Don's waterways. You can see this maritime bond in the structure itself and its placement on the riverbank.

Take public transport to the Chunya University stop to reach this location easily. The viewing platforms are open during daylight hours, giving you clear views of the river from above.

The building still holds original 19th century navigation equipment that shows how pilots once directed ships through specific water routes. This gear offers a glimpse into the practical methods sailors used to guide vessels safely.
