Montagu Bastion, Military bastion in Gibraltar, United Kingdom.
The pentagonal stone fortification stands along the Line Wall Curtain, featuring strategic positions for artillery and defensive structures against naval attacks.
Constructed on the former Spanish Plataforma de San Andrés, the bastion received major extensions during the 1790s under Sir William Green's supervision.
The Gibraltar Exhibitions of Modern Art Gallery currently occupies sections of the bastion, presenting contemporary artworks within historical military architecture.
The facility includes a 42-bed youth hostel named Emile Hostel and serves as headquarters for the Gibraltar Youth Service programs.
Three Gibraltar Shields, originally designed to protect RML 10-inch guns, remain visible at their original mounting positions on the bastion walls.
