St. Angelo's Fort

Description:
One of the major landmarks of the town of Kannur, St. Angelo's Fort, holds historical importance related to the state. It was built in the begining of the 16th century by the first Portuguese Viceroy, Don Francisco De Almeida. Built in 1505 A.D. it was captured by the Dutch in the 17th century who in turn sold it to the royalty of Kannur, the Arakkal Ali Raja in the 18th century. It remained with the Kannur royalty till the British came in. The British not only renovated the structure but also made the fort as their strong base in the Malabar region.
Today not much of its past glory stands intact other than some cannons and barracks. Ruins of a chapel also can be seen on the fort. The fort is today a pretected monument and as it faces the sea, it offers a spectacular view of the Arabian Sea from its top.
