Fortaleza de Bezmiliana, 18th century military fortress in Rincón de la Victoria, Spain

The fortress features a quadrangular layout with two levels connected by barrel vaults, surrounded by masonry walls with two towers and a moat.

King Carlos III ordered the construction of this fortress in 1766 to defend against English and Dutch pirates operating along the coast.

The fortress contains exhibition halls displaying regional artifacts and documents that tell the story of coastal defense systems in Andalusia.

The building includes wheelchair accessible ramps and dedicated parking spots, with trained staff available to assist visitors during operating hours.

The entrance portal incorporates neoclassical design elements with iron-reinforced wooden planks that remain from its original construction period.
