Fort Friedrichsburg, Military fort in Kaliningrad, Russia.
The square fortification features four corner towers with robust brick walls and contains multiple underground casemates designed for troop protection.
Frederick William I commissioned the construction of Fort Friedrichsburg between 1657 and 1661 as part of Königsberg's defensive system during the Second Northern War.
The fort's church served the garrison from 1671 to 1816, while mathematician Christian Otter created the original architectural design with four distinct bastions.
The Museum of the World Ocean operates within the fort, offering exhibitions about maritime history from Wednesday through Sunday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM.
Each corner bastion received a precious stone name: Smaragd, Perle, Rubin, and Diamant, reflecting the Prussian military naming conventions.
