Houses for officers were built in
the 1820s-1830s on both sides of
the Commandant’s house and the
fortress garden. 1. Oficieru Street
has still preserved two houses (No
2 and 8) also for officers at the
commandant and committee of
the military registration office, yet
the architecture of these houses
differs from that of other buildings.
Officer Assembly with its own club
and library was functioning in the
fortress.
In the 1920s-1940s the building
was occupied by headquarters and
other services of Zemgale division,
different clubs were situated there
as well.
In order to view internal buildings
of the citadel, choose the thematic
route “Commandant’s Route” visible
on the map that you can receive
in Daugavpils Fortress Culture and
Information Centre (Nikolaja Street 5).
