Torsion topological groups with the additional property that the intersection of open sets is open are considered and their topological structure is determined:

1) the topology is uniquely determined by a normal subgroup;

2) each group is uniquely an extension of an indiscrete group by a discrete group;

3) the topology may be changed within limits without changing the dual group.
