Fort XV, Military fort in Toruń, Poland
Fort XV stands as the largest artillery fort of the Toruń Fortress, featuring two-vault structures and concrete reinforced barracks designed for defensive operations.
Constructed between 1881 and 1885, the fort underwent multiple reinforcement phases to withstand artillery fire and served as Stalag XXA during World War II.
The fort maintains historical exhibitions and guided tours that present the evolution of military engineering and defense strategies in nineteenth-century Poland.
Visitors can access Fort XV through local public transportation, with regular guided tours available since 2021 and both standard and reduced admission tickets.
The structure contains a network of underground passages and military installations that demonstrate the technical capabilities of nineteenth-century fortification systems.
