Lonely Planet review for Fort St George

Finished around 1653 by the British East India Company, the fort has undergone many facelifts over the years. Inside the vast perimeter walls is now a precinct housing the Secretariat & Legislative Assembly. The 46m-high flagstaff at the main entrance is a mast salvaged from a 17th-century shipwreck.
