Fort Ia w Poznaniu, Military fort in Starołęka, Poland.
Fort Ia features a trapezoidal layout with two separate barrack blocks, one under the rampart and another in the rear section with the main entrance.
Construction of Fort Ia began in 1887 and ended in 1890, forming part of the Poznań Fortress defense system with 18 different fortification structures.
The fort received its initial name after General Hermann von Boyen in 1902, but in 1931 it was renamed to honor Krzysztof Arciszewski.
The fort maintains a dry moat 6 meters deep and 9 meters wide, protected by anti-assault weapons positioned in corner caponiers.
The structure serves as a Natura 2000 protected area, providing winter shelter for up to 110 bats of various species.
