This quadrangular fort is also the mausoleum of revolutionary heroes, including Amílcar Cabral
Behind its thick ramparts and 38 cannons, this former Portuguese fortress seems to threaten the port area and old Bissau, to which it is attached. It is still occupied by the army, so access is restricted. This 18th-century quadrangular fort is also the mausoleum of revolutionary heroes, including Amílcar Cabral, who has been buried here since 1975, as well as Osvaldo Vieira and Francisco Mendes. Former presidents are also buried here.
