Fort Montagu
|
|
|
Fort Montagu was built in 1741 and stands guard at the eastern entrance to the harbor of Nassau. It's the oldest fort on the island. The Americans captured it in 1776 during the War of Independence. Less interesting than Fort Charlotte and Fort Fincastle, the ruins of this place are mainly for fort buffs. Many visitors find the nearby park, with well-maintained lawns and plenty of shade, more interesting than the fort. Several vendors peddle local handcrafts in the park, so you can combine a look at a ruined fort with a shopping expedition if you're interested.
Open: Open daily 24 hr.Free admission.Bus: 10 or 17.
