What travelers say:

Fort George is a huge fortress pool overlooking the Bay of Mali. Fort George is a large fortress in the 18th century, perhaps the most powerful artillery fortification in Europe. The fortress was built in 1746 and was damaged in the war with the James. It took 20 years to complete the construction. Since then, the fortress has never been attacked and has been preserved to this day. The design of the fortress is star-shaped. It is now open to the outside world and exhibits collections of different periods. Fort George was the base of the Royal Irish Legion in modern times. After 2007, the 3rd Battalion of the Royal Scottish Legion was stationed here.
