It was originally built in 1588 to defend the south of the island from the Omani sultans who were expanding into East Africa at the end of the 17th century. A rounded fortification of 1695 preceded the triangular one of 1830, which had twenty-two cannons. Detached from the southern tip of the island of Mozambique, this small fort was nicknamed locally the "casa feita numa noite no meio do mar", in other words, a house made for a night in the middle of the sea, which one can only approach by boat, following the traces of history.
