The highest point of The Rock

O’Hara’s Battery, located at the very top of the Rock of Gibraltar, marks the highest accessible point on the peninsula and offers some of the most spectacular views across the Strait of Gibraltar, the Mediterranean Sea, and even the coast of North Africa on a clear day.

Built in the late 19th century as part of Gibraltar’s coastal defense system, the site features a massive 9.2-inch gun that once played a key role in protecting the territory. Today, visitors can not only enjoy the breathtaking scenery but also step inside the battery itself, where the preserved interior reveals the workings of its gun chambers and the daily life of the soldiers stationed there. It is a fascinating stop on any Gibraltar Rock Tour, combining natural beauty with an authentic piece of military history.

A marvel of Victorian Engineering

Perched by the picturesque Rosia Bay, Gibraltar’s iconic 100‑Ton Gun commands stunning views of the surrounding coastline, making it as much a scenic landmark as a historical one. Installed in 1886 at Napier’s Battery, this colossal artillery piece was a marvel of Victorian engineering, capable of firing massive shells weighing over 2,000 pounds (roughly 907 kg) at impressive speeds of up to 1,700 km/h (over 1000 mph).

Remarkably, despite its formidable power, the gun was never fired in anger, serving instead as a potent symbol of Gibraltar’s strategic importance. Today, visitors can explore an exhibition inside the Napier’s Battery building to delve deeper into the history, engineering, and legacy of this extraordinary piece of military technology, all while taking in the breathtaking views of Rosia Bay.

The Tower of Homage - Historic Significance

Our tours allow a unique experience of the Tower of Homage. From the outside you'll be able to see the battlescars from canon attacks over the years, from pirate attacks from the Bay of Gibraltar.

Inside you'll be able to navigate through the stairwells and experience the islamic architecture. From the top you'll enjoy incredible views of Gibraltar and to Spain. 

Gibraltar History

The Tower of Homage from The Moorish Castle can be seen by all visitors to Gibraltar, not only because of its striking construction, but also because of its dominant and strategic position on the north face of The Rock.

Constructed by the Marinid dynasty in 711 AD, The Moorish Castle is truly a unique piece of history on the Iberian Peninsula. The Moorish occupation is by far the longest in Gibraltar's recorded history, having lasted from 711 to 1309 and then again from 1333 to 1462, a total of 727 years.

The present Tower of Homage, and most of what is visible today of the Castle, was rebuilt during the second Moorish period of occupation in the early 14th century, after its near destruction during a reconquest of Gibraltar by the Moors following a re-occupation by Spanish forces from 1309 to 1333.

18th century life during wartime

The Great Siege of Gibraltar started on the 24th June 1779 and lasted 3 years. During this time the Spanish fleet blockaded Gibraltar, and it was only thanks to relief convoys that broke through that Gibraltar survived.

 

 

With strict rationing and lack of supplies, many of the people and armed forces suffered greatly during this time, including a violent outbreak of scurvy amongst the defenders.

 

The siege was finally lifted on the 7th of February 1783 and resulted in a decisive victory for the British against overwhelming odds. The siege was a factor in ending the American Revolutionary War.

This historic Gibraltar attraction is available on our Platinum Rock Tour. The City Under Siege Exhibition will allow you to step back in time to learn about the military of those days, punishments, order and how people survived under strict conditions. You'll also see 18th century carvings on the wall such as dates and grafitti from the time period. It truly is a unique experience and story of the early British struggles in Gibraltar and a testiment to the people, the army, and British navy of the day.

Adventure in the footsteps of Churchill...

The most intensive phase of tunnelling in Gibraltar's history came during the Second World War, when the territory played a vital role in the North Atlantic and Mediterranean theatres. The total length of the tunnels increased greatly during the war, from 7 miles (11 km) to 25 miles (40 km).

At the start of the war, the civilian population was evacuated and numerous new tunnels were excavated to create accommodation for the expanded garrison and to store huge quantities of food, equipment and ammunition.

You'll be able to walk through sections of these tunnels to see how the army's operations were carried out, where the soldiers slept and the rooms created for supplies and storage. Enjoy a headset and audio guide to truly take in all the history of these World War II tunnels.

The most impressive defence system devised by man?

One of the biggest and most popular attractions in Gibraltar are The Great Siege Tunnels! This attraction is available on all of our Rock Tours in Gibraltar.

The Great Siege of Gibraltar was an attempt by France and Spain to capture Gibraltar from Great Britain. Construction of the tunnels was ordered due to the defending garrison's need to cover a blind angle on the north-east side of the Rock.

The work was carried out by hand, mainly using sledgehammers and crowbars, aided by gunpowder blasts. Total construction length of the tunnels by the end of 1783 was approximately 908 feet (277m).

The Great Siege Tunnels exhibition allows you to step back in history and experience the tunnels for yourself. Explore St George’s Hall with the cannons and soldiers working the defences. Experience the stories of the times with the interactive buttons and audio as you travel down inside. You'll see from the hollowed out windows the view of the Northern side of Gibraltar. The Tunnels are full of history, from military history to the engineering methods of the 18th century, to it’s modernisation and transition.

Outside The Great Siege Tunnels, you’ll also enjoy the viewing platform of the Northern side of Gibraltar, with a full view of the aiport. If you’re lucky you’ll be able to catch a plane arriving or taking off which is always a unique experience!
