Fort Santa Agueda, Spanish colonial fort in Hagåtña, US.

Fort Santa Agueda features a 10-foot parapet constructed with coral stone and lime mortar, positioned on a sloping hillside in Hagåtña.

During the administration of Spanish governor Manuel Moro from 1784 to 1802, this defensive structure was built to protect the region from potential invasions.

The fort represents a significant example of Spanish colonial military architecture and demonstrates the historical defense strategies employed in the Pacific region.

Visitors can reach the fort via Guam Highway 7, where they can examine the remaining fortification structures and view interpretive displays about its military past.

The fort transformed from a Spanish military post to an American signal station, then to a Japanese gun emplacement during World War II.
