    Boyen Fortress

    Named after the then Prussian minister of war, General Hermann von Boyen, the Boyen Fortress was built between 1844 and 1856 to protect the kingdom’s border with Russia. Since the frontier ran north–south along the 90km string of lakes, the stronghold was strategically placed in the middle, on the isthmus near Giżycko.
