Шаблон:Infobox military installation The Fortaleza de Santo António da Ponta da Mina or Forte de Ponta da Mina is a ruined fort located east of the island capital Santo António in the island of Príncipe in São Tomé and Príncipe. It is located at the headland Ponta da Mina.[1] The fortress consisted of two parts: the Bateria Real and the Bateria do Príncipe.[2]
The fort was built in 1695. In 1706, the city of Santo António was invaded by the French during the Spanish War of Succession, destroying the town and its fortress.[3] It was repaired several times, and was finally abandoned in the early 20th century.
