History
The Portuguese built the Mormugao Fort as a shield from incessant invasion from Marathas. The year 1624 witnessed the completion of the construction of the fort. This fort stands as a first-rate example of tough fortification. Though, much to see in the fort is not left apart from a Church and some strong walls. In olden days, the Mormugao Port used to be an imperative port. The fort has rich historical importance as there is priceless historical information hidden in the inscriptions of its wall.
The Mormugao fort in Goa covers in circumference, an area of six miles. This fort contained very tall fortification, five prisons, a chapel and quarters for the sentinel. There were 53 guns and a garrison with 4 officers. The fort earned fame of being an important fortress on the western coast. Regrettably, except the chapel and a segment of the boundary wall, little is left of this fort.
Two beautiful fountains were also there. The Fonte de Malabar kept the imperial armaments and was said to bobble up from a gold mine and the Fonte de Santo Ignacio which had a more unpretentious beginning in a sulphur mine.
An inscription over the fort of the gate reads (in translation from the Portuguese): The Catholic King Dom Filippe, the third of this name, reigning in Portugal, Dom Francisco da Gama, fourth Count of Vidigueira, Admiral of India, a member of His Majesty's Council and a Gentleman of the Royal Household, being Viceroy for the second time, this Fortress was begun, the first stone being laid in April 1624. The Maratha warriors continued to attack the town and the fort and finally the Portuguese gave up the township in preference for Old Goa
