Fort Jesus & Mombasa’s Old Town

Located in the Arab old town in Mombasa, Fort Jesus Museum was once a military fortification built in 1593 to secure the safety of the Portuguese living on the East Coast of Africa. With its long history, fort Jesus is one of the most exceptional examples of the 16th century fortification and landmark in the history of this type of construction.
