Travel Tips Of Fort St. Angelo
Kannur, Kerala, India
Fort St. Angelo, also known as Kannur Fort, is a massive triangular laterite structure that stands as a testament to the colonial history of India. Built in 1505 by Dom Francisco de Almeida, the first Portuguese Viceroy of India, it is one of the earliest Portuguese forts built on Indian soil. The fort is situated on a cliff overlooking the Arabian Sea, providing a strategic vantage point that was fought over for centuries. In 1663, the Dutch captured it from the Portuguese and later modernized the structure, building the bastions that we see today. Eventually, it fell into the hands of the British in 1790, who used it as their primary military station in Malabar. The fort features massive ramparts, a chapel, a stable, and a long-drawn-out prison cell. The cannons still face the sea, reminding visitors of its turbulent past. Today, the fort is a protected monument under the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). It offers a serene environment with well-manicured gardens and walkways. From the fort's walls, one can see the Mopila Bay fishing harbor and the Dharmadam Island in the distance. The sea wall provides a perfect spot for people to sit and watch the sunset. It is not just a historical site but a living part of Kannur's urban landscape.
