Fort reditowy 7 "Za Rzeką", Military fortification in Kraków, Poland.

The fort features a horseshoe-shaped brick structure with a terrace covered in earth, surrounded by a classical moat with two defensive caponiers.

Constructed between 1857 and 1865, the fort replaced an earlier defensive structure from 1854 and underwent modifications with additional transverse structures in 1888.

The fort represents 19th-century military engineering and forms part of the extensive Kraków Fortress complex, recognized in the register of monuments.

The Pedagogical University acquired the fort in September 2021 with plans to transform the military structure into a conference center.

The fort maintains its original drawbridge at the gate of the reduta, demonstrating preserved 19th-century military architectural elements.
