Fort Wint, Military fort on Grande Island, Philippines
The fortification contains five distinct batteries with coastal artillery pieces, including two 10-inch disappearing guns at Battery Warwick and multiple 3-inch rapid-fire guns.
The Philippine Department of the United States Army constructed Fort Wint between 1907 and 1920 as part of the Manila and Subic Bays defense system.
The fort received its name from Brigadier General Theodore J. Wint, following the military tradition of honoring distinguished officers through installations.
The fort location at the entrance of Subic Bay, 35 miles north of Manila Bay, provided strategic control over maritime traffic in both major waterways.
After World War II, the military installation transformed into a resort area for personnel until 1991, when United States naval bases closed operations.
Inception: 1910
Part of: Harbor Defenses of Manila and Subic Bays
