Forte de São Sebastião

關於

The Fort São Sebastião of Castro Marim (Forte de São Sebastão de Castro Marim in Portuguese) is located in the village, parish and municipality of Castro Marim, in the District of Faro, in Portugal.

The fort is located to the south of Monte do Castelo, in Serra do Cabeço, where there was originally a hermitage under the invocation of Saint Sebastian, demolished during the fortification works. Its importance stems from it being the best preserved example of the extensive process of renovation of the town's defensive system in the mid-17th century.

The fort has been classified as a National Monument since 2012.
