A concrete fire point of the German army from the First World War, located on the left bank slope of the Daugava, 300 m east of Tambovičiai, near the Bauska - Aizkraukle (P87) road. Two loopholes have survived from the concrete fire point. After the reconstruction of the road, its surroundings (the bank slope) have been cleared of bushes and the object is now clearly visible when driving from the road. The road is narrow and there is no place to park a car near the object! It is difficult to get to the object, as the slope is steep and sometimes slippery. The road offers beautiful views of the Daugava valley.
