Fort Berkeley, Military base in Saint Paul Parish, Antigua and Barbuda
Fort Berkeley contains remnants of defensive walls and gun emplacements positioned at the entrance of English Harbour, monitoring maritime traffic in colonial times.
The British military constructed Fort Berkeley during the 18th century as a crucial component of their naval defense network across the Caribbean region.
The fort stands as part of the Antigua Naval Dockyard complex, earning UNESCO World Heritage status for its representation of Caribbean colonial military architecture.
Visitors can reach the fort through a marked trail from Nelson's Dockyard, with guided tours available that explain the military engineering of the period.
