This historic fort sits on a hill and has watched over the city since 1749. The star-shaped structure was built to protect the area and has been rebuilt several times. Today, it’s a place where you can see what life was like for soldiers in the 1800s, with old cannons, stone walls, and people dressed in period uniforms.
- The fort is most popular for its daily noon cannon firing, which is super loud and cool to watch.
- You can walk through tunnels, climb up the ramparts, and check out the old guard rooms.
- There are interactive exhibits and costumed guides who show how soldiers lived and worked.
- See History in Action: Watch the noon cannon go off and see people in old-school uniforms doing drills. It's like stepping into the past.
