A wooden watchtower beside a stockade

A small wooden hut with a railed platform stands high on four braced timber legs at the corner of a tall board fence, a figure visible on the platform; beyond it the ground stretches flat and bare to a low line of buildings on the horizon. The source mentions German, Austrian and Turkish prisoners of war. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Central Powers were held in camps across Siberia during and after the war.
