Forsthof Jasnitz

Forsthof Jasnitz

Jasnitz

In the middle of one of the largest closed forest areas in the south of West Mecklenburg, on the edge of the "Griesen Gegend", lies the Jasnitz forestry office with its historic Forsthof. This is a popular excursion destination for holidaymakers and those seeking relaxation and offers space for exhibitions and seasonal markets several times a year. The listed Forsthof with its old forester's lodge is now the administrative headquarters of the Jasnitz forestry office and a special attraction for nature lovers, hikers, excursionists and school classes. In 1793, the former Jasnitz farm with its hunting lodge was converted into the Forsthof. The forestry office building that still exists today was built around 1857. A functioning artesian well, a restored half-timbered barn and other outbuildings are part of the lovingly restored ensemble. The Forsthof is the starting point for two nature trails that lead through the surrounding forest. Numerous information boards along the paths provide interesting facts about the natural wealth of our forests and inform visitors about their use as a source of raw materials. Well-known animal and landscape painters and other artists regularly exhibit their works in the Forsthof's "Little Gallery".

Fort Engelsburg

Fort Engelsburg

Świnoujście

The fort was built in the 1850s and originally served as an artillery observation post for the Świnoujście fortress. From the outside, it resembles the Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome, to which its name alludes. It currently houses a museum exhibition and hosts cultural events. Fort Engels was built between 1854 and 1858 under the reign of Prussian King Frederick William IV as an artillery and observation post for the Świnoujście fortress. At that time, the ground floor was manned by infantry armed with small arms, while the two upper floors housed light field artillery. Cannons and ammunition were hoisted up through oval holes in the ceilings using ropes. During World War II, the fort was remodeled and equipped with all available technologies (electricity, central heating, radio, telegraph) and served as an air observation post for the German Wehrmacht. After the war, the site was taken over by the Russians. It is currently being renovated and functions not only as a museum but also serves as a cultural institution for the city of Świnoujście. The fort hosts music and poetry concerts, as well as reenactments of traditional medieval jousting tournaments. On the firing range, visitors can practice archery, slingshot throwing, or air rifle shooting. The fort also features an unusual Viking hall where visitors can handle exhibits, even try them on, and use them as backdrops for photos. The fort’s shape—built on a regular pentagonal floor plan—resembles Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome, hence its name. Permanent exhibitions: - Exhibition of navigational instruments - Porcelain exhibition - Amber jewelry exhibition - Glass art exhibition - Exhibitions of paintings and sculptures by various artists

Fort Gerhard in Świnoujście

Fort Gerhard in Świnoujście

Świnoujście

Fort Gerhard is one of the most important sights in Świnoujście. The building was constructed in the mid-19th century to protect the harbor entrance. It was designed by Gerhard Cornelius, after whose name the building is still named today. Fort Gerhards is just one part of the Swinoujscie fortress. Alongside the lighthouse, it is one of the most important historical monuments in Świnoujście. It was also the most important facility guarding the entrance to the port of Świnoujście. It is a well-preserved fortress built in the years 1848-1859. The idea for its construction came from the 18th century architect Gerhard Cornelius van Wallrave, who also drew up its plan. He was also the author of the project to extend the fortress in Kłodzko (Glatz). The eastern fort was also named "Fort Gerhards" in his honor. The fort has the shape of an oval two-storey redoubt. It originally had two wings and a drawbridge leading over the moat to the main entrance, an inner courtyard and three towers. Due to its location, the harbor was exposed to direct, regular attacks by the enemy. The fortress was therefore constantly expanded. In 1881, two caponiers were added, i.e. earthworks arranged across the moat, which were used for firing and defending the entrance to the fortress. Two bunkers were built at the southern and northern ends of the fort, which were connected to the inner courtyard of the fort by an underground tunnel. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, a narrow-gauge railroad was brought to the fortress and a telegraph line was installed After the war, the fortress was handed over to the city. Initially, camps were set up there. The building was later abandoned. Much changed in 2001. The fortress was leased by a group of enthusiasts who opened its doors to visitors a few months later. One of the most interesting places for living history lessons was created. Visitors to the fort learn about history under the watchful eye of a "Prussian soldier", who shows them around and "drills" them if necessary. In 2001, the Coastal Defense Museum was established in the fortress. It is the largest private institution of its kind in Poland and contains over 2000 exhibits on the development of the Swinoujscie fortress over the last 300 years. In the fortress we can see one of the best preserved artillery galleries in Europe - a series of stone and brick emplacements for 150 and 210 mm caliber coastal guns with preserved artifacts of various gun mountings; a small courtyard with casemates under the artillery gallery; ammunition and powder magazines in the west wing of the fort; two artillery stations and former firing positions for field guns on the southern rampart of the fort above the southern caponier; the wreck of the SDKFZ 7/2 transporter, which was salvaged from the sea near Dziwnów in 2006, on the drill ground. The tour of the fortress takes about 75 minutes, plus additional time for the museum visit. Other similar attractions await military and history enthusiasts in Świnoujście. Three of the four forts built in the 19th century have been preserved to this day. All of them are open to the public.
