[2024 Candolim Attraction] Travel Guide for Fort Aguada Jail Museum (Updated Nov)

Fort Aguada!!!

The fort has two levels, Upper and Lower Aguada Fort. It was built in 1612 by the Portuguese for defense, particularly to restrict the entry of enemy ships. Within the fort premises was a freshwater spring. In the 1930s, the southern part of Lower Aguada Fort was turned into a prison. The place continued to serve as a prison till 2015. Today the jail complex has been turned into an interactive museum that highlights the history of Goa, from the Portuguese Era through Goa’s freedom struggle in the 20th century, and into modern times. #goa #Aguadafort #Museum #Beach
