Fort Gustave St-BarthéLemy

Built in 1787 by the Swedish as one of three forts to protect the harbor, this site today has the remains of a vaguely bottle-shaped lighthouse along with vestiges of a stone guardhouse, cisterns and four cannon, including two on loan from a Swedish maritime museum. The main reason to make the trek up here though is for the panoramic view of Gustavia and the harbor. A plaque points out local sights and landmarks.
