The old forts built were at the beginning of the 19th century.

Now the forts are a unique tourist complex, which includes museums, galleries, the remains of a fortress - all this reflects the turbulent and difficult history of these places.

The history of this place began when Alexander III in 1890 ordered the construction of a large fortress in this place to strengthen the borders. For a long time, this area of ​​Liepaja was a separate city and was called the Military Port of Emperor Alexander III. These forts served to protect the city.
