Fort Lytton National Park
Although Fort Lytton no longer defends Brisbane from invasion, the national park protects the birthplace of Queensland's military history. From 1881 to 1945 this classic coastal fortress, one of several built around Australia's coast in the nineteenth century, was the focus of Queensland's defence activity. The well-preserved pentagonal fort is concealed behind grassy embankments surrounded by a water-filled moat.
Immerse yourself in the fort's fascinating history on a guided tour. Learn how the restored guns were raised to fire over the fort's ramparts, before being lowered again so that they disappear from view. Visit the museum. Enjoy a picnic at the fort with scenic river views.
