Remains of a German army concrete fire point on the banks of the Plavinas HPP
Infrastructure

Located in the head of a small bay of the Pļaviņas HPP reservoir between Bitānes and Baloži, approximately opposite the Čoči cemetery. The fire point is perfectly camouflaged on a small dolomite rock ridge, merging with the surrounding landscape, over which the foliage of trees bends, so it is difficult for an uninitiated person to notice it. The remains of the fire point are located close to the water level (when it is not lowered in the reservoir) and can be recognized by the metal rods with which the contour of the structure was reinforced. The waves of the reservoir have severely eroded the shore.

The firing points of the German army's defensive line during World War I can be traced more or less along the entire length of the left bank of the Daugava from Ķegums to the Pļaviņas HPP reservoir, inclusive. The aforementioned defensive line is a large-scale military system that has not yet been truly evaluated as a unified whole.

The fire point can be seen well from a boat. It will be more difficult to find from the shore.
