Kaunas Fortress

1879–1918 

The history of Kaunas Fortress is revealed in the authentic spaces of the Ninth Fort. The expositions in the Fort’s barracks and the semi-caponier introduce visitors not only to the construction of the Ninth Fort but also to the construction of other objects of Kaunas Fortress, their modernisation and unrealised projects. Visitors have the opportunity to walk through the underground communication galleries together with the tour guides and see the artillery guns used during the First World War and their models. The Fort’s barracks also offer a glimpse into the subsequent fate of the fortress buildings and authentic artefacts from the First World War period in Lithuania.
