Fort classified as a historical monument and managed by the National Park Service, used as a setting for a scene in the film Vertigo by Hitchcock
It was during the American Civil War, called the Civil War, that this fort was built in 1848 to protect the passage of the Golden Gate in case of an attack from the Confederate fleet. 126 cannons watched over the bay for fear of the capture of the port of San Francisco. The fort is now a designated historic monument and is managed by the National Park Service. It is part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. The scene in Hitchcock's film Vertigo, where Kim Novak tries to drown herself, takes place exactly at this place... An impressive place not to be missed.

Le fort en lui-même n'offre que peu d'attrait, MAIS il est situé sous le Golden Gate et offre des vues impressionnantes sur le pont et la baie

Non seulement le monument est magnifique mais il offre en plus de superbes vues sur la baie, la ville et le pont.
