The 18th-century Castillo de San Julián, a crumbling fortress in Cartagena, Spain, stands as a testament to conflicts past. Housing a tower built by the British in 1706, the oldest part of the fort, the construction of this fortress began in the 18th century and was completed in 1883. The Castle encompasses intrenches and caponiers, characteristic of polygonal fortifications, and was built in the Neoclassical Architecture. Despite its seemingly dilapidated condition, the city administration is working on its restoration.
