康华丽斯古堡

1786年莱特船长在槟城登陆的地点，古堡原是木造的，后改为洋灰建筑物。

古堡内现有露天剧场、历史走廊和纪念品售卖中心。

荷兰送给柔佛苏丹的大炮也摆在这里陈列。

城堡西北部装有一尊于1603年製造的荷兰大炮，称为[斯里南北]。

当地渴望生男育女的不孕妇女都会在炮管内献上鲜花祷福祈子。

Fort Cornwallis

Fort Cornwallis is situated at the spot where Captain Francis Light was supposed to have landed in 1786. Originally a wooden structure, the fort was rebuilt between 1808 and 1810 with convict labour.

It was named after Charles Marquis Cornwallis, a distinguished Governor General of India, and designed as a defense against the French, Kedah, and pirates.

Even though the fort was originally built for the Royal artillery troops and the military, its function historically was more administrative rather than defense. In its entire history, the fort had never been engaged in any battle.
