Fort Charles, Military fortification in Karłów, Poland

Standing at 750 meters above sea level, Fort Charles presents a strategic defensive position with views across the Lower Silesian landscape near the village of Karłów.

The fort's construction occurred during the late 19th century as part of the regional defense network established throughout Lower Silesia to protect important transportation routes.

The fort represents the military architectural traditions of Lower Silesia, incorporating elements from different periods of Polish and German defensive engineering.

The fortification stands 23 kilometers west of Kłodzko and can be reached via the main roads connecting to nearby towns in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship.

The structure maintains its original defensive features while offering visitors an elevated vantage point to observe the surrounding mountainous terrain of southwestern Poland.
