Line Wall Curtain, Defensive sea wall in Gibraltar, United Kingdom.
The Line Wall Curtain extends from North Bastion to Engineer Battery along the western coast, protecting Gibraltar's harbor and town from maritime attacks.
British military engineers constructed the fortification during the 18th century, incorporating remnants of earlier Spanish and Moorish defensive structures.
The King's Bastion section of the wall contains exhibits about Gibraltar's military heritage and the development of coastal defense systems.
Visitors can access the wall through guided tours that start at Casemates Square and continue south toward the Waterport area.
The structure houses an ancient water supply system with clay pipes that transported water from mountain wells to ships in the harbor.
