Grand Casemates Square
Trecere fără oprire
Grand Casemates Square is the larger of the two main squares within the city centre of Gibraltar. The square takes its name from the British-built Grand Casemates, a casemate and bombproof barracks at the northern end of the square completed in 1817.
The guide will explain the history of the square from the Moorish times to present day.
Also have a look at the 18th century drawbridge which was the only land entrance on and off the Rock for pedestrians during this period.

Landport Gate historically was the only entrance into the fortification of Gibraltar. This tunnel was covered by twenty guns making it perilous to attack and safeguarding the British soldiers inside. This tunnel leads to Casemates Square. The original gate is still standing.

Irish Town
15 min
As you stroll through Irish Town Gibraltar – the narrow street that was once the main thoroughfare and commercial centre of Gibraltar – cast your mind back three hundred years to when it was once known as Calle de Santa Ana. It was dominated by three convents but the peace of this religious fraternity was short-lived, however, when the British captured Gibraltar in 1704 converting the convents of Calle de Santa Ana into military barracks, the street became know as Irish Town since it formed part of the barrack compound where the lower military Irish ranks were housed. During the Great Siege which ended in 1783, in which Spain tried to recapture Gibraltar, most of the old town including the buildings along Irish Town, was razed to the ground.
