Строкинское укрепление, Fortification in Izmaylovo District, Russia.
The Strokinskoe Fortification features circular earthen ramparts with a diameter of 500 meters, reaching heights of 2 meters and widths of 20 meters.
The fortification emerged in 1680 as part of Moscow's defense system, with some archaeological findings suggesting potential earlier constructions dating back to the 15th century.
The site stands as a representation of Russian military engineering practices, integrated within the expansive grounds of Izmaylovsky Park in eastern Moscow.
Located near the Moscow Ring Road and 16th Parkovaya Street, visitors can access the fortification through the eastern section of Izmaylovsky Park.
The structure includes four radial ramparts and a central island surrounded by a water-filled moat, forming a perfect circular defensive formation.
