For a long time, this city, the westernmost point of our vast country, was closed to tourists. 

But now you have the opportunity to walk freely around the city, examining the ships of our navy, see the Russian embankment built in the Prussian city during the reign of Elizabeth Petrovna, the hotel where Nobel laureate Joseph Brodsky stayed, the bicentennial lighthouse and the majestic monuments of Peter I and his royal daughter, and on the seashore many attentive tourists have already found their little piece of the sun.

You will be able to visit the famous Pillaus fortress of the XVII century, the walls of which were seen by the troops of the Swedish King Gustav II Adolf, the great embassy of Peter I, the army of Napoleon Bonaparte, and fell before the onslaught of our Soviet troops during World War II. 

Baltiysk, which was opened to us only in the 90s, has preserved the spirit and atmosphere of all the epochs that it had to go through, and its appearance does not leave any tourist indifferent.
