It is the island's visiting card and the first thing you see after arriving on the island. 1898-1902 years were spent on the construction of the battery. The composition of the battery is quite large and includes 6 6-inch and 2 57-mm guns. 03:41 Voroshilov Battery Coastal turret battery № 981 named after Klim Voroshilov, caliber 305 mm. One of the unique fortifications in the world, similar in armament, is located only in Sevastopol. The decision to build it was made in the spring of 1931. The next two years were spent only for rock and underground works. The towers and barrels were delivered to the island by sea, and then by specially built railroad. 07:47 "Grand Duchess's" Battery №369 Designed for four 10-inch coastal cannons of 1895 model.

The coffer is connected to the inner courtyard of the fort by a gallery with skylights. The exit from the cavity is covered with a draft and can serve as a shelter for the rolling cannons. The fort's barracks is considerably reinforced in comparison with the standard design, and can be used for permanent housing of the garrison.

Fort №12" of Grand Duke Saint Vladimir" situated on the Akhlestyshev Hill near the Paris Bay. The fort was meant to protect the Saperny Peninsula from the enemy's infantry breakthrough, which could have been aimed at the coastal batteries at Cape Novosilsky and Karazin Peninsula. These batteries were of great importance for the defense of the Eastern Bosphorus Strait. The fort was designed for a company of infantry, 2 counter-attack guns and 6 rapid-fire guns. The firepower of the fort was increased in comparison with other forts of Russky Island. The left lunette is used to bombard the landing zone near Akhlestyshev cape, while the right redoubt is used to bombard the space between the fort and Novik Bay and the approaches to Fort 11. 19:50 Fort № 11. Among different elements of the fortress the forts stand apart by their concept: they were supposed to be the main bastions of security and peace of mind for citizens of Russia and particularly of Vladivostok in those years when there was a real threat of Japanese invasion.One of the six forts that were built on the Russky Island. The fort is located in the southern part of the island, north of Cape Tobizin, which in the case of an attack could easily land an enemy landing. Because of the rocky and steep coastline of the peninsula, it is impossible to place heavy artillery on it, and because of the proximity of Tobizin to the shore, the Japanese could not set up camp there. That is why the fort was designed in a light construction to be protected against ship's large-caliber guns at long ranges and medium-caliber field guns at short ranges. 24:32 Fort No. 9 "Fort of Prince Rurik" The main task of the fort is to defend the coast at the isthmus of the Kondratenko Peninsula and Ivantsev Bay.It is designed for a company of infantry, eight 3-inch anti-tank guns, four 3-inch rapid-fire guns, fourteen 57 mm caponier guns and twenty machine guns.
