Overlooking Pensacola Bay, Fort Barrancas is the last in a series of forts built on this strategic bluff between 1698 and 1844 and used by Spain, France, Britain, and the United States. Advanced Redoubt, a nearby fortification built by the United States in the mid-1800s, protected Fort Barrancas and Pensacola Navy Yard from land-based attacks.
