Eua, Colonial fort on Seru Sablica hill in Willemstad, Curaçao.
Fort Nassau stands 68 meters above sea level, featuring rectangular batteries and a protective ring wall overlooking Willemstad's harbor and waterways.
The Dutch military committee ordered the construction of Fort Nassau in 1796, spending 60,000 guilders to establish a defensive position against British naval forces.
The fort transformed from a military stronghold into a restaurant in 1959, preserving its original structure while serving Caribbean and international cuisines.
Visitors can access the fort by following the signposted road up Seru Sablica hill, with parking available near the entrance.
The fort functions as a control tower for the Queen Emma Bridge since 1825, monitoring maritime traffic through the St. Anna Bay.
