While the fortress is well maintained nad has a number of exhibitions, I was looking to find a bit more information about the life of the soldiers who were stationed here. But all the living/sleeping ... more »

Very large fortress which was obsolete before it was finished due to changes in the way war was made. Apart from the exhibitions, which have been different each time we've been, there are lots of room... more »

Extremely large, but very monotonous fortress with a confusing setup. The endless structure seems to exist only of casemates... Unfortunately the separate upper part was closed and the (temporary) exh... more »

Haben die Festung im Rahmen unseres Urlaubs besucht. Was soll man sagen? Viele leere Räume, aber trotzdem interessant anzuschauen. Die Räume die nicht leer sind, sind mit einer Ausstellung und Kunstinstallationen bestückt. Wir waren trotz schönen Wetters so gut wie alleine auf dem gesamten Gelände. Leider kann man ohne Führung nur die untere und mittlere Festung begehen, in die obere kommt man nur mit Führung (durch einen Tunnel aus der unteren). Man merkt das sehr viel Zeit und Geld in das Objekt gesteckt wurde, alle Bauten sind mit neuen Türen und Feuermeldeanlagen ausgestattet, außerdem braucht man keine Treppen steigen wenn man nicht möchte, da überall Aufzüge installiert wurden. Der Bereich zwischen mittlerer und unterer Festung hat mir besonders gut gefallen (siehe Fotos auf der Website). Wenn man sich anschaut was alles gemacht wurde, rechtfertigt dies die ziemlich happig wirkenden Eintrittspreise von 7€ / Erwachsenen b.z.w. 5€ für Studenten. Es ist dafür aber ein sehr schöner Ort geworden, der einen Besuch lohnt. Auch wenn es draußen 25°C und mehr sowie Sonnenschein hat, ist es in den Gebäuden sehr kalt, da diese eben teilweise in den Fels gebaut sind sowie aus massivem Gestein bestehen. Man sollte also ein extra Fleece oder einen Pulli mitbringen ;)

Have visited the fortress in the context of our holiday. What can I say? Many empty spaces, but still interesting to look at. The spaces that are not empty, are equipped with an exhibition and art installations. Despite beautiful weather, we were virtually alone on the entire site. Unfortunately, only the lower and middle Fort can be made without a guide, the upper one comes only with management (through a tunnel from the bottom). You can tell a lot of time and money was put into this object, all buildings are equipped with new doors and fire alarm systems, also need get no stairs if you want to not because all elevators were installed. The area between the middle and lower fortress especially I liked (see photos on the site). If you look at what has been done this justifies acting pretty steep ticket prices of €7 / adults b.z.w. €5 for students. But, it has become a very nice place which is well worth a visit. Even though it has 25 ° C and more as well as Sunshine out there, it is very cold in the buildings because they are built partially into the rock and made of solid rock. You should bring along so an extra fleece or sweater ;)
