Torpedownia, German torpedo testing ruins in Babie Doły, Poland
The concrete structure rises from the Baltic Sea waters, standing 300 meters from the shore connected by a wooden pier.
During World War II, German forces constructed this torpedo testing facility after their Eckernforde base came within range of British bombers.
The torpedo station appears in several Polish television series, including Four Tank-Men and a Dog and Kryminalni television productions.
Visitors can reach the ruins by parking near the Naval Aviation Brigade in Gdynia and walking along the coastal path.
The facility contained an underwater corridor on the seabed specifically designed for tracking torpedo trajectories during test launches.
