City: Portugal
Description:

It is strongly protected by the defense of the border with Galicia, by the Middle Ages the medieval town of Chaves. It had to fortify itself, garrison the nearby hilltops, in order to keep them from being occupied by enemy artillery. The fort is standing in a reasonable state of preservation. The fort is based on the Vauban system, with a four-pointed star, each one serving as a lookout tower.
