Tammneeme Battery

Tammneeme Battery

In Randvere village on the Viimsi peninsula are the ruins of the Tammneeme coastal battery. The first command post was built in the early 1920s, with four gun emplacements behind a metre-thick parapet and a concrete shelter. It was then found that the field of fire was not effective enough, so in 1928–1934 four new gun emplacements were built on a shore terrace to the south-west. The site is protected as a typical fortification of its time.

Viimsi poolsaarel Randvere külas on Tammneeme rannakaitsepatarei varemed. Vana komandopunkt rajati 1920. aastate alguses ning patareil oli neli kahurialust meetripaksuse rinnatise taga ja betoonvarjend. Seejärel leiti, et tulesektor pole piisavalt tõhus, ning aastatel 1928–1934 rajati edelasse kaldaterrassile neli uut kahurialust. Rajatis on ehitismälestisena kaitse all kui oma ajastule tüüpiline kindlusehitis.
