ВОРОТА РИГИ: на поиски потерянной батареи

Hidden in the forests of Mangalsala, Riga, lies a true treasure for lovers of military history and adventure. The fortifications of the Ust-Dvina Fortress. Their purpose was to keep enemies out of the city if they came from the sea. And if they did enter by land, to keep them out. The real gates of Riga, once locked. Six concrete batteries remain to this day. But historians know there must have been another battery with the most powerful guns—305 mm caliber. These guns could sink battleships—armored ships with artillery. But no trace of this battery remains. We organized an entire expedition to search for it.
