The 5th fort / Alksnių g., Zuikinė This is of the most complex structures in Kaunas fortress because it was set up according to the mountainous terrain. As a result, it became one of the most expensive objects of Kaunas fortress. It was barely untouched during the WWI - only some constructions were demolished by the retreating troops. However, there was a massive explosion in the fort during the WW2, and the circumstances behind it are not precisely known. It is located right next to Kaunas lagoon, in a very picturesque spot. The fortifications are being taken care of, and the large part of the territory belongs to the active paintball club. The environment is quite wild: the fort is hard to see, both from the nearest street and the bird’s eye.
