St George and Related Fortifications, Colonial fortifications in St. George's, Bermuda.

The defensive complex includes fortresses, batteries, and military installations spread across multiple islands, protecting the strategic harbors of this British settlement.

The fortification system, established in 1612, served as a crucial military outpost for the British Empire, defending naval routes in the Western Atlantic.

St Peter's Church within the fortified area represents the oldest Anglican place of worship in the Western Hemisphere, dating from the first settlement period.

Visitors can explore Fort St Catherine, which contains extensive underground passages and exhibits detailing military life through different time periods.

The State House from 1621 stands as the first stone building in Bermuda and currently functions as a Masonic lodge meeting place.
