Some parts of the fortress are open to tourists.  At the same time, the Polish military still has many facilities in the area and thus some redoubts are inaccessible.  Some abandoned redoubts are not maintained and have deteriorated badly, with many metal elements having been pillaged for scrap.<ref name="Newsweek" />  The [[Modlin Airport|Modlin airfield]] is located within the fortress area.  It re-opened as the second civilian airport for the city of Warsaw in July 2012. In 2013 the Modlin Fortress was sold to private investors after being on the market for five years, but some key features such as the Tatar Tower and the White Tower must be preserved for the visiting public.<ref>{{cite news|date=12 August 2013 |title=Twierdza Modlin została sprzedana |trans-title=Modlin Fortress was sold |language=pl |newspaper=Newsweek|url=http://biznes.newsweek.pl/twierdza-modlin-zostala-sprzedana,107437,1,1.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130909010503/http://biznes.newsweek.pl/twierdza-modlin-zostala-sprzedana,107437,1,1.html |archive-date=9 September 2013 |url-status=dead}}</ref>
