Alba Carolina - How The Defensive Moats Look Today
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 เม.ย. 2023
- 🔴 EN The Alba Carolina fortress is a fortress with Vauban-type bastions built at the beginning of the 18th century in the medieval town of Alba Iulia on Citadel Hill, having the role of a strategic fortification to defend the Habsburg Empire against the military efforts of the Ottoman Empire and to consolidate the Habsburg power locally.
Prior to the era in which it was built, there were 2 other previous fortifications in the same place: the Roman Fort of the XIIIth Legion Gemina (106 AD) and the Medieval Fortress of Bălgrad (16th-17th centuries).
The project was inspired by Marshal Prince Eugene of Savoy, who introduced the fortification systems developed by Vauban in France during the time of King Louis XIV into the Habsburg Empire. The complex was part of a wider system of fortified points, intended to provide defensive protection for the newly conquered provinces.
The original plan of the fortress was sent to Vienna and approved by Prince Eugeniu of Savoy on April 18, 1714, and it, together with the order to start the works, was handed over on April 26, 1714, to General Steinville, the commander of the imperial troops in Transylvania. In July 1714, the general received, based on the observations from Vienna, the notification to draw up a new plan, adapted to them.
The necessary land (140 ha) was freed between 1713-1715 by the demolition of the old medieval city, which had to be moved to the eastern part of the fortress (the current lower city).
The project, from a technical point of view, belongs to the Italian architect Giovano Morando Visconti. The works (estimated in total at over one million gold guilders) - were initially led by him and later by the military engineers Iosif de Quadri and Konrad Won Weiss. Although the originally designed defense system included 4 lines of fortifications and a more distant fortification placed on the nearby Forks Hill, the final construction only had 3 lines of defense.
