The long-term firing point (pillbox) was museumized and opened to the public in 2004. This is firing point No. 115 of the Minsk fortified area, built in 1932-1933 and was part of the Stalin Line defensive fortification system. The pillbox, designed for a garrison of 12 soldiers, has recreated the combat situation: there are three Maxim machine guns with ammunition boxes, a periscope for circular observation of the enemy, a cooling system, a filter and ventilation system, communications equipment, an original telephone coil for a field telephone and other military items. The Red Army soldiers, represented as mannequins, are still "on their combat watch" at the embrasures.

We arrived at the museum at 10 a.m., having read the information on the website that it starts working at 9 a.m. On the locked doors, they saw information that tickets were not sold locally, but in the city center, and a phone number. After calling, we found out that the museum would not be open until 12. It's a shame.

Unexpectedly interesting inside. It is worth visiting the complete Museum of Mythology and Forests - they are nearby and they have the same museum staff.
