Summary

[edit]
Description The fort is situated in a strategically very important location: on the precise meeting point of the Commewijne river and the Suriname river, close to the ocean. The large fortress was built in the shape of a polygon in 1734 by slaves as a defence for the crop fields that were situated along the upper parts of both rivers.
