  22. Point of interest after 106.4 km

    Artillery battery No.1 (Northern Fort) "A long system of concrete fortifications was once part of the Naval Port’s defences, but was intentionally destroyed after a friendship and cooperation agreement was signed with Germany in 1908. It’s not known if the tsar later pondered the irony of blowing up such massive defences on the eve of WWI, but of course it's always easy to make jokes with hindsight. Today, you can cautiously walk through the ruins and watch buildings, pillboxes and concrete staircases slowly recede into the sea, but beware as a large section collapsed in a landslide in January of 2018. Similar forts are visible in the south of Liepāja where Klaipēdas and Ganību streets meet."

    Karosta Prison This was a military prison used by the Russian when they were established in Liepaja. They used to send every soldier who failed to comply with the military code. So the visit of the prison is very recommended, the guide speaks in English and is very nice.
