Koporye, Railway station village in Lomonosovsky District, Russia

The stone fortress of Koporye stands on elevated ground with thick defensive walls measuring up to 35 feet, featuring octagonal and rectangular towers.

The Teutonic Knights built the first wooden fortress in 1240, which Alexander Nevsky destroyed before a stone fortress replaced it in 1280.

The fortress mirrors medieval Russian military architecture through its construction methods, incorporating local limestone and precise engineering techniques of the period.

The railway station connects travelers to Saint Petersburg through regular regional train services, operating between morning and evening hours.

The fortress walls contain narrow passages that allowed defenders to move between towers without exposure to enemy fire during medieval sieges.
