More information

Medjidi Tapia - Medjidi Tapia is a fortress located south of Silistra, part of the Ottoman fortification system used during the Crimean War and the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878. It is the best preserved of the six facilities in the system. The fortress was built in the period 1841 - 1853 according to the plans of the German military engineer Helmut von Moltke. It has the shape of a hexagon and reaches 8 meters in height. About 300 Bulgarians were forcibly gathered for the construction. The main masters were hired from Dryanovo, and the stonemasons were from the region. It is an interesting fact that during the construction of the fort the first monolithic Revival temples were built in the Silistra region - in Alfatar and Kalipetrovo.
