Fort Tscha of the Warsaw Fortress (Russian: "Щ", as an abbreviation for Fort "Szczęśliwice") was one of the artillery forts of the Warsaw fortifications of the 19th century. It was built at the end of the 1880s as part of the inner fort belt and today belongs to the Warsaw district of Ochota. The fort is relatively well preserved and is currently not in use. It is freely accessible and exposed to decay through weathering and vandalism.
