Ostrołęcka Gate

Highlight • Monument

"The representative gate called "Ostrołęka" is located in the eastern part of the fortress on the Narew River. It is a three-story defensive gate from 1836 with a central passageway located above. Already in the years of World War I or earlier, a second passageway was pierced in this gate. Later the tracks of the narrow-gauge railway that ran over the Narew River were run through it. On the outside, the gate was equipped with pairs of shooting holes on both sides of the passage, and on the first floor, the parapets of all the shooting holes were made of stone classical architecture. On this side, on the second floor, there are three semicircular windows and the arched gateway is framed by pairs of Ionic pilasters.

(There is still a banner for the old Motorcycle Pub)

A monument in the form of a plaque with text and an anchor commemorating the first port of the reborn Second Polish Navy. It was unveiled on June 21, 1997, at the initiative of members of the Maritime League Association and the residents of Nowy Dwór Mazowiecki. The monument is situated on the right bank of the Narew River, directly opposite the entrance to the former naval port located near the Lieutenant Feliks Pancer Bridge.

Ruins of the Narew Central Power Plant

Highlight • Historical Site

The Modlin Fortress power plant was commissioned in 1924 in a classicist building on the Narew River opposite the "White Tower."
The first 220 V DC generator powered a 200 hp steam engine. A few months later, a second generator, this time a three-phase 5 kV AC generator, was commissioned, and by the end of the year, an 8 km-long power line was put into operation.
In the following years, the power plant was gradually modernized, adding two combustion engines fueled by heavy fuel oil and two generators, increasing its power and voltage to 6.5 kV. At the same time, the power line was expanded, as the Modlin power plant also supplied power to the city of Nowy Dwór.
The power plant operated until the mid-1950s. Only the expansion of the state power grid and the incorporation of the fortress and the city into its structure brought its operations to an end. To this day, the power plant building and the fuel oil tank have been preserved in relatively good condition; unfortunately, the engines and generators located in the building were vandalized and stolen.

Meciszewski Caponier

Highlight • Historical Site

The former artillery kennel (also known as a caponier) was built during the expansion of the Modlin Fortress citadel between 1832 and 1844. Before World War I, the building had four stories; from August 1915, only two. Just a dozen or so years ago, a figure of a knight, carved from sheet metal, stood on the building's "terrace." The name "Knight" was familiar among the locals; if you arranged to meet someone at "Knight," you knew where they were. Unfortunately, there's no trace of it left. From the caponier's "terrace," you can see the ruins of a granary and the confluence of the Narew and Vistula Rivers. For several years, a mural referencing the Napoleonic era has been displayed on the citadel's walls (to the right of the stairs).

Ruins of the Modlin Fortress Grain Elevator

Highlight • Historical Site

An artillery tower built around 1900 on a J-shaped plan, made of brick with stone detailing, known as the "elevator" (elevator). Located on the Vistula River, it was two and three stories high, originally covered with earth, now with a roof. On the inner side (courtyard), rooms were designated as soldiers' quarters; on the outer side, these rooms were the combat section of the tower, where cannons could be positioned if necessary. Since there was no military activity during the Russians' stay in the Novogiergievsk Fortress, the Russians converted it into a grain warehouse (elevator) to utilize it. Together with the mill, flour warehouse, and bakery, they formed the so-called "supply line."
