The “Capitana” (Captainess) bastion barely survived some Allied bombs hitting German ammunitions stored inside.

The walls were somewhat “grafted” together after the war, but the damage is visible and the bastion is still off-limits for visitors. This is the part of the fortress you see better from the terrace of the former “
Piazza dei Grani”.

Sadly, several half sunken boats around the bastion's southern end spoil the beautiful view.
