St John's Fort is a historical landmark located in the city of Melaka, Malaysia. The fort was built in the 16th century by the Portuguese as a defense against enemy attacks. It is situated on top of a hill overlooking the Melaka River and the surrounding area.
The fort is a rectangular structure with four bastions at each corner. It is made of red bricks and has a moat surrounding it. The entrance to the fort is through a small gate that leads to a courtyard. The courtyard has a well in the center and is surrounded by walls with gun ports.
Inside the fort, there are several rooms that were used for different purposes. There is a chapel that was used by the Portuguese soldiers for worship. There are also rooms that were used as barracks, storage rooms, and a kitchen. The fort also has a small museum that displays artifacts and weapons used during the Portuguese era.
The fort has a rich history and has been through several changes of ownership. After the Portuguese, the fort was taken over by the Dutch and then the British. During World War II, the fort was used as a base by the Japanese army.
Today, St John's Fort is a popular tourist attraction and a symbol of Melaka's rich history. Visitors can explore the fort and learn about its history through guided tours. The fort also offers stunning views of the Melaka River and the city.
