Arad Fort
Situated near the Airport, this Arab-style fortress was built at
the end of the 15th century to guard the southern harbour of
Muharraq Island. It was subsequently captured by invading
Portuguese and Omani forces who used the fort as a military base.
Arad Fort has recently been fully restored to its original state
and stands as a potent symbol of Bahrain's rich historic heritage.
