Did you know there's an extensive line of forts and fortresses all over our coast?
>>
>>217756514
that's just a lighthouse
>>
>>217756552
It's a fort with a lighthouse inside. We're trying to get the whole ensemble to UNESCO heritage status
>>
>>217756608
It's a lighthouse and a single building
>>
>>217756624
Are you not seeing the cannons and bastions?
>>
>>217756699
Sorry a lighthouse a single building and a single cannon
>>
>>217756743
There are more cannons. If they get collectively promoted to world heritage status it would be the coolest one yet.

brazilian fortresses look like that?
>>
>>217756790
That's not the same place
I only see one next to the lighthouse
>>
>>217756793
There are many with turrets, but they're modern, albeit deactivated, so not part of the old ensemble
>>
>>217756818
Of course it's not the same place you absolute dingus, I'm posting different examples
>>
>>217756608
How can that crap be a monument
>>
>>217756896
I don't care about the other places I just don't think the first one can be called a fort
If that's a fort my house is a castle
>>
>>217756933
Your house doesn't have bastions and cannons and it's also not 400 years old
>>
