Abstract 

For the historical virtual reconstruction of the I/4 Maruszka Las Fort, a comprehensive approach was applied, which included a combination of field observations (terrestrial laser scanning and digital photogrammetry) as well as historical data analysis. A key aspect was the accurate and detailed reproduction of the shape and size of all architectural and structural elements of the fort including preserved and damaged. An integrated approach and the use of specialised software allowed us to integrate the collected data into a three-dimensional solid model of the I/4 Maruszka Las Fort. The creation of such a model is important for the preservation of this object, as well as its promotion. The presented study demonstrates a wide range of possibilities for the use of modern technologies, especially geodetic ones, for the study of different historical sites.
