Historical coastal artillery cannon barrels with a commemorative stone at the Daugava Museum

The image shows a close-up side view of historical coastal artillery cannon barrels placed on a concrete base in a green lawn. The massive metal barrels are stacked in a group and bound together with thick metal chains. In the foreground on the left, a fragmented, reddish granite stone is positioned next to the barrels, featuring a carved inscription in Cyrillic. Historical markings and engravings are visible on the ends of the cannon barrels.

The exhibition is located outdoors, surrounded by lush green trees and a well-maintained lawn. In the background on the left, between the tree trunks, the distant shapes of two human silhouettes moving through the territory are faintly visible. The surrounding natural ground is covered with grass, with small yellow flowers and tree leaf shadows visible in places.

This historical monument is located on the grounds of the Daugava Museum on Dole Island. The photograph provides a detailed, closer perspective of the military heritage objects, highlighting the texture of the stone and the construction of the metal barrels. Natural daylight illuminates the exhibition, emphasizing the textures and the greenery of the surrounding park.
