Fort Point under the Golden Gate Bridge

Fort Point is a masonry seacoast fort completed in 1861 at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge. Its roof and parapets provide an unusual, low-angle viewpoint directly beneath the bridge’s span, offering close-up views of the bridge’s ironwork and the channel. The fort is a National Historic Site managed by the National Park Service and is open to visitors for its historic interiors and vantage points.
