It is a unique on a European scale - the battery was an experimental model and the only in its sort. Along with the years after World War II the battery (as well as the others similar) was becoming more and more neglected and devastated. In order to save the battery a special section of the Toruń Branch of Fortress Friends Society was organized. At the turn of 2008 members of mentioned section created an independent Toruń Society of Fortifications whose main goal is to save battery and other local facilities.
