History:
In this area there were always a lot of wars in the beginning of the 18th century because of the possesion of the crossing place on the river Danube. During these wars five new fortifications and ramparts were built from which this one is the only remainder.
It is located on the right side of the river Danube almost well-conditioned, covered with bushes and trees. It might have been built by a French engineer in 1704.

From Road no. 6, there is a non-stop inn by the road, you can park here: lat="N 46° 50,995'" lon="E 18° 54,668'". Go to East on foot, passing the fence on the right.
