Tvrđava Brod

Save

Sagrađena na obali rijeke Save od strane austrijskih Habsburgovaca između 1715. i 1780. godine, slavonskobrodska tvrđava bila je važno strateško središte koje je kontroliralo glavne trgovačke putove prema Turskoj i Osmanskom Carstvu koje se polako povlačilo.

Utvrda je bila projektirana za smještaj 4000 vojnika i 150 topova. Prema ocjeni otpora tvrđave Brod, tijekom klasične opsade s kanalima punog kapaciteta bilo je potrebno deset dana priprema za napade i 46 dana da neprijatelj zauzme cijelu tvrđavu. Iako je vojno granično uporište, tvrđava gotovo nikada nije imala priliku dokazati i pokazati svoju borbenu moć. No, mnogo je sačuvanih utvrda koje podsjećaju na prošla vremena i svakodnevni vojnički život koji se u njemu odvijao. U razdoblju od 1945. do Domovinskog rata 1990-ih godina tvrđava je služila kao smještaj za vojnike Narodne armije Jugoslavije.

Danas je veliki dio tvrđave napušten, a neki od prostora su oronuli ili su se potpuno urušili, ali osim nekoliko znakova upozorenja ništa ne sprječava znatiželjne avanturiste da zalutaju i istraže brojne sobe, hodnike i stubišta.

My buddies and I went to Brod Fortress this past weekend. We had a lot of fun shooting guns, walking around taking in the sights, and even going to a couple of restaurants.
