St. George's Foundation's UNESCO World Heritage Centre, St. George's Town, Bermuda, on the 11th of June, 2016.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: The St. George's Foundation's World Heritage Centre at St. George's Town, in the old Imperial fortress colony of Bermuda, on the 11th of June, 2016, created in an old military ordnance stores warehouse on Penno's Wharf after the town, along with those fortresses at the East End of Bermuda, were designated in 2000 by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization's (UNESCO) World Heritage Committee as a World Heritage Site, the Historic Town of St George and Related Fortifications, Bermuda. The two RBL 40-pounder Armstrong guns mounted on either side of the front door were recovered from the wharf into which they had been set, after becoming obsolete, for use as bollards.[1]
