An ammunition store of about a thousand square metres, built in 1913 for the fortifications of the Terespol bridgehead of the Brest-Litovsk Fortress; Terespol was then part of the Russian Empire. In 2011 the disused structure was taken over by members of the Terespol Circle of Fortification Enthusiasts, who renovated it and set up a museum. Its rooms hold displays on military history, aviation and the railway, including a model of Terespol station in 1919–1939.
