Fortress Khadzhibey

Fortress Gadzhibey, Hadzhibey fortress, Odessa fortress
Ukraine, Odesa
The Khadzhibey fortress was founded by Suvorov in 1793-1794 on the site of a destroyed Turkish fortress. But it carried its defensive function for less than 20 years, and then was transferred to Quarantine. To date, a part of the arcade of the Quarantine Wall, the Powder Tower adjacent to it, the detached Dead Tower, and the Andreevsky Bastion have been preserved. All of these facilities are located near Shevchenko Park.

Heading to Lanzheron Beach through Shevchenko Park, do not pass by the oldest Odessa landmark - the remains of the Khadzhibey fortress. It was founded in 1794 - a year before the founding of the city of Odessa, by the legendary Russian commander Alexander Suvorov. Over time, having lost its defensive significance, the fortress became Karantinnaya. Near its walls there was a village where travelers from newly arrived ships were accommodated, part of the village was "plague" - patients with suspected infectious diseases were isolated in it.
