Fort IV, Military fortification in Bemowo, Poland.
The pentagon-shaped fortress features a dry moat, defensive walls, brick barracks, and multiple caponieres spanning 400 meters in width and 200 meters in depth.
Built between 1883 and 1890, Fort IV served as a defense point for the road to Poznań and railway line as part of the Warsaw Fortress outer ring.
The fort grounds now function as recreational space where local residents participate in winter activities, including ice skating on the frozen moat.
Visitors need flashlights to explore the interior sections of the fort, as many areas remain dark and require careful navigation through the structure.
The fort's moat becomes a natural ice rink each winter, maintained by local community members who organize supervised skating sessions.
