More model informationThe ravelin is built to protect the entrance or weakest part of the fort and is part of the extensive defensive system of the Castillo de San Marcos National Monument. This wedge-shaped structure is located within the moat and covered way areas that enable soldiers to protect the fort from enemy fire by moving around the structure. The glacis area in front of the ravelin is a sloped earthen work area to protect the lower walls and designed to limit visibility of the fort structure so that enemies would have difficulty striking it.
