The original build dates back to the 16th century but the building suffered changes in the 17th and 18th centuries. The main door bears the arms of Dom Joao II. Located inside the fort are the Convento dos Frades Jerónimos, founded in the 16th century, and a chapel built on the very spot where, so the legend goes, lie the human remains of St Vincent.

The original building was almost totally destroyed by the corsair Sir Frances Drake. Rebuilt in the 17th century it was once again damaged during the 1755 earthquake.

The chapel of Santa Catarina (St Catherine), commissioned by Infante D. Henrique, is also located inside the fortress.
