From Prussian forts from the 19th century, through air raid shelters from World War II, to museums and other objects related to the military and fortress history of Poznań. The nineteenth-century forts of the Prussian fortress are the most popular, among them the relics of the largest of them - Fort Winiary, known as the Citadel.
