Photos of Bermuda

Fort St. Catherine is the largest fort in Bermuda; it was first constructed in 1612 and rebuilt five times by the end of the 19th century, when Bermuda became a premier base for the British Royal Navy in the Western Hemisphere. In the 20th century, forts fell out of favor, and most of the coastal artillery still in use was placed in batteries with only minimal fortification. Today Fort St. Catherine houses a Bermudian history museum with special emphasis on the military.
