Барс, Artillery gun in Ivangorod, Russia

The Bars artillery gun features a robust steel construction with reinforced mounting mechanisms designed for long-range artillery operations in defensive positions.

Installed in 1896, the Bars artillery gun played a strategic role during regional conflicts, serving as part of the fortification system near the Estonian border.

The Bars artillery gun represents a significant example of late 19th-century Russian military engineering and technological advancement in weapons manufacturing.

Visitors can access the artillery gun site throughout the year, with guided tours available in Russian and English through the local military museum.

The Bars artillery gun maintains its original firing mechanisms and elevation controls, making it one of the few preserved examples from its production period.
