About :

Within Portuguese territory, for centuries some of the most important battles in Europe were fought, including that of Aljubarrota. In an attempt to invade Portugal, the Spanish with a troop of more than 30,000 soldiers fought against a troop of 5,000 Portuguese soldiers and in just one It was enough for the Portuguese to obtain a crushing victory over the Spanish-French, however, despite fighting in the medieval era, invasions of the country were constant by Spain and in the 18th century the forts helped protect Portugal from Spain and France! What do you think about traveling through one with the drone?🏰👨‍🏫

Dentro del territorio Portugues durante siglos se libraron algunas de las batallas mas importantes de Europa incluyendo la de Aljubarrota quienes en un intento de invadir Portugal los españoles con una tropa de mas de 30mil soldados lucharon contra una tropa de 5mil soldados Portugueses y en tan solo una tarde basto para los Portugueses obtener una victoria aplastante sobre los españoles-franceses, sin embargo apesar de librarse en la era medieval las invasiones hacia el pais fueron constantes por España y en el siglo 18 los fuertes ayudaron a proteger Portugal de España y Francia! que te parece recorrer uno con el drone?👨‍💻💂‍♂️🧭

Characteristic of the military fort💂‍♂️🧭/ Característica del fuerte militar🚩

I love visiting these types of tourist attractions, in addition to the beautiful landscape that the hill above the city of Torres de Vedras gives us, we can enjoy another piece of Portuguese history, the fort was built between 1809 and 1810, normally despite being structures Very simple wars, there is a whole engineering behind the walls because some of them were built in the shape of stars to attack from all angles, however this one, having a Y shape, was with the objective of focusing the entire attack towards the Mediterranean. and the tajo river. The only purpose of a fort was to protect the capital of Lisbon!👨‍💻🧭💂‍♂️

Me encanta visitar estos tipos de atracciones turisticas, ademas del hermoso paisaje que nos regala la colina sobre la ciudad de Torres de Vedras podremos disfrutar de un pedazo mas de historia Portuguesa, el fuerte fue construido entre los años 1809 y 1810 normalmente apesar de ser estructuras belicas muy simples hay toda una ingenieria detras de las murallas porque algunos de ellos fueron construidos en forma de estrellas para atacar a todos los angulos, sin embargo este al poseer una forma de Y era con el objetivo de centrar todo el ataque al hacia el mediterraneo y el rio tajo. El unico proposito de un fuerte era para proteger la capital de lisboa!🏰🧠🙇‍♂️

Now I am using the drone for scientific purposes and it has turned out wonderfully, piloting it here is free and you do not need permission but be careful, I do not recommend raising it higher than 50 meters because there is an airfield very close! The advantage of using the drone for photographs is that at these angles we can see the details of the fort, such as the bridges that were mobile at the time, and we also see the traps that surrounded the fort and could place water or traps that would infect wounds.🏰🧠🧭

Ahora estoy utilizando el drone para fines cientificos y me ha resultado de maravilla, pilotearlo aqui es libre y no necesitas permiso pero cuidado no te recomiendo elevarlo a mas de 50 metros porque hay un aerodromo muy cerca! la ventaja de usar el drone para las fotografias es que en estos angulos podemos ver los detalles del fuerte como por ejemplo los puentes que en la epoca eran moviles, y tambien vemos las trampas que rodeban el fuerte y se podia colocar agua o trampas que infectaban heridas.🚩👨‍🏫🧭

cannonball and trap🚩🏰💂‍♂️

Here we see original cannon balls that were found in the fort which tells us that some battles were fought between the walls probably against the French in the early 18th century, even if an enemy troop managed to evade the defensive line of the cannons they had to encounter With the troop of more than 2,000 soldiers, all with long-range weapons, to escape, the soldiers had to go through the traps that were a series of canals that surrounded the fort and if you fell there you probably wouldn't come out alive. The traps were connected with movable wooden bridges.👀

aqui vemos balas de cañones originales que fueron encontradas en el fuerte lo que nos dice que se libraron algunas batallas entre los muros probablemente contra los franceses en comienzos del siglo 18, aun si una tropa enemiga conseguia evadir la linea defensiva de los cañones tenia que toparse con la tropa de mas de 2mil soldados todos con armas de largo alcance, de lograr evadir los soldados debian atravesar las trampas que eran una serie de canales que rodeaban el fuerte y que si caias alli probablemente no salias vivo. Las trampas eran comunicadas con puentes de madera moviles.👀🚩

The fort had the capacity to place 39 canoes and more than 4 thousand soldiers, although in order not to waste resources there were almost always 2,200 in total, the fort of Sao Vicente was the first to be built to protect the center of the country and since the 18th century when it defeated the first battle against the French-Spanish, more than 170 were built around the defensive line. Among the construction plans of the structure there was already a chapel here dating from the 17th century and a ruin that apparently could be from the Moorish civilization. !🧠🚩👨‍🏫🧭

el fuerte tenia la capacidad para colocar 39 canoes y mas de 4mil soldados, aunque para no desperdiciar recursos casi siempre habian 2200 en total, el fuerte de Sao Vicente era el primero en construirse para proteger el centro del pais y desde el siglo 18 al vencer la primera batalla contra los franceses-españoles se contruyeron al rededor de la linea defensiva mas de 170. Entre los planos de la construccion de la estructura ya habia aqui una capilla que data del siglo XVII y una ruina que apararentemente podria ser de la civilizacion moro!🏰🧠👨‍💻

Just as the castles communicated with fire signals, the forts were already more sophisticated and had something called: (optical telegraph) this was a huge structure that served as a means of communication by codes in which two structures moved, the telegraphs. They were at the ends of the fort! We can see an example in the museum that is inside the fort, a shame that when I went it was closed!👨‍🏫🚩🧭

asi como los castillos se comunicaban con señales de fuego, los fuertes ya eran mas sofisticados y posian algo llamado: (telegrafo optico) esto era una estructura enorme que servia como un medio de comunicacion por codigos en las cuales se movian dos estructuras, los telegrafos estaban en los extremos del fuerte! podemos ver un ejemplo en el museo que esta dentro del fuerte, una pena que cuando fui estaba cerrado!🧠🏰🙇‍♂️
