Dęblin Citadel - Lublin Gate

Local name: Twierdza Dęblin - Brama Lubelska

The Lublin Gate is one of the two entrance gates to the former Dęblin Fortress, part of the fortification, along with the ramparts built during the reign of Tsar Nicholas I Romanov.

The brick red brick building has two storeys. The front elevation in the Neo-Roman style is decorated with reams and arched arcades of brick and stone. The gate is located on the military grounds and is not available for exploration alone, and from the inside can only be viewed while visiting the fort.

The building in the past was the entrance to the fortress on the south side, and its completion was the northern Warsaw Gate. Built after the uprising of the November Uprising and the incorporation of the Kingdom of Poland into Russia, the Dęblin Fortress along with the fortresses built in Warsaw and Modlin at the same time constituted a system to stop the Polish nation from revolutionary aspirations.
