Built in the 18th century as part of Santa Catarina Island’s defense system, the fort controlled the strait between island and mainland. Its strategic position covered vessel passage through North Bay. The walls and grounds were adapted for museum use. The Major Lara Ribas Arms Museum displays weapon collections and places the region’s military history in context. The site combines a visit to fortified heritage with views of the bridge and bay along Avenida Beira-Mar Norte.
