Fort I, Military fortification in Nowy Dwór Mazowiecki, Poland

The fort underwent significant modernization between 1912 and 1914, strengthening its defensive capabilities before the onset of World War I.

Fort I serves as a testament to Polish military engineering and represents the evolution of defensive structures in Eastern European fortification systems.
