Forte di Santa Tecla, Historical fort near the old port in Sanremo, Italy.

The triangular fort stretches across 2,488 square meters, featuring three floors and bastioned vertices that exemplify 18th-century military architecture.

The Republic of Genoa ordered the construction of this defensive structure between 1755 and 1756 following civil unrest in 1753.

The fort houses military exhibitions and historical displays that document the evolution of coastal defense systems in the Ligurian region.

Visitors can explore the fort from Tuesday through Sunday, with operating hours from 10:30 AM to 1:00 PM and 3:30 PM to 6:00 PM.

The fort maintained 21 artillery pieces during its active military period, with 16 on front bulwarks and 5 smaller ones on the rear bastion.
