Fort Adelaide - Citadelle
Named after Queen Adelaide, the fort was built between 1834 and 1840, under the direction of William IV.
At 240 ft. above sea level, Fort Adelaide, also known as 'La Citadelle', has fulfilled the strategic purpose of guarding the harbor against enemy attacks and fires that broke out in the city.
Today, thanks to the efforts by the Municipality to preserve this cultural heritage, it is the only one out of the four forts built in Port Louis not to end up in ruins.
A ride uphill to Fort Adelaide will guarantee you a breathtaking view of the city of Port Louis, nestled at the foot of the Port Louis / Moka mountain ranges and stretching towards the harbor.
