The Fortress of Arad
The Fortress of Arad was built by Maria Teresa’s demand, and it was built between 1763-1783 through the plans of Ferdinan Philipp Harsch.
The Fortress of Arad played an important role in the revolution in 1848-1849, being besieged for long time. From within the fortress the Austrian army bombed the city for 8 months with over 40.000 projectiles. Now the fortress is a museum and also accommodates a unit from the Romanian Army.
