Summary/Abstract: Poznań Fortress, built in the nineteenth century, was one of the largest fortresses in Europe. To date, many buildings belonging to the fortress are in good condition. For many years now, architects, historians, the residents of Poznan have been wondering what to do with the historic forts: should these be ashamed of, or perhaps exposed. At the turn of June and July 2015, students of the Faculty of Architecture of the Poznań University of Technology inventoried Fort VIIa, a structure belonging to Poznań Fortress. On the basis of this work, documentation allowing to restore the fort according to modern concepts of the modernisation of historic buildings was prepared.
