The Fortress Builders Fortifications Interpretation Centre was established on February 2013.
The Interpretation Centre's mission statement is to explore both the uniqueness of the islands fortified constructions and the creativity of their architects.
With the help of models, old drawings, audio-visual presentations and scale models made of wood, you will be made clear how a fortification is structured. It also explains why a fort or city is built in a certain way.
