The Fort M-Che (abbreviation for Mokotów-Czerniaków) was built in 1892 near the village of Wierzbno, as part of the inner circle of the series of fortifications of the Warsaw Fortress, build around Warsaw by the Imperial Russian Army.[1][2] Around the fort was built Czeczota Street. In 1909, it was decided to decommission and demolish the fortifications of the Warsaw Fortress, due to the high costs of their maintenance, and as such the M-Che was demilitarized and abandoned.[1][3] After 1921, the fort begun being known as Fort Odyńca, after the nearby Odyńca Street.[2][3] The fort was deconstructed in the 1920s.
