Turret room

It is looks like ruined church. There used leverage and balances systems for lifting and lowering the platform with the gun, without needing electricity or steam engines. All the installation seems abandoned long time ago, but there are evidences that all equipment, including armored turrets was in place until the mid-1990s, and than it was scrapped.
