Located on the left bank of the Daugava River, about 350 m from the mouth of the Kausupīte River, towards the west. Completely submerged. The object can only be reached by boat. It is possible that it can be approached closer when the water level at the Riga HPP is lowered. This is one of the firing points of the German army's defense line on the left bank of the Daugava River during the First World War, which can be more or less traced along the entire length of the left bank of the Daugava River. The aforementioned defense line is a large-scale military system that has not yet been fully evaluated as a single entity.
