Fort Point National Historic Site
Since 1970
Fort Point, known historically as the Castillo de San Joaquín (Spanish for "Saint Joachim's Castle") is a masonry seacoast fortification located on the southern side of the Golden Gate at the entrance to San Francisco Bay. It is also the geographic name of the promontory upon which the fort and the southern approach of the Golden Gate Bridge were constructed.
The site was originally fortified by the Spanish in 1794 as a complementary defense outpost to the Presidio of San Francisco.
