The fort dates back to the 16th century, though its history is believed to stretch back even further.

Over the centuries, the fort has undergone various modifications and restorations, especially during the reign of Sultan Qaboos, when it was rehabilitated and opened to the public.
The fort features traditional Omani military architecture, with thick walls, narrow windows, and strategic towers designed to provide defense against invaders. The structure is built using local materials such as stone and mud brick, and it blends well with the surrounding natural landscape. The layout includes a central courtyard, defensive walls, and several rooms that were once used for different military and administrative purposes.
Muttrah Fort was recently restored to ensure its preservation and to make it accessible to the public. Visitors can explore its various levels, including the old gun platforms, towers, and the central courtyard. The fort also contains a small museum that displays artifacts related to the history of the fort and the region.
As a symbol of Oman’s rich history, Muttrah Fort plays an important role in showcasing the country’s past, from the era of Portuguese rule to its more modern history. The fort is a popular tourist attraction and a must-see for anyone visiting Muscat. It also holds cultural significance as it represents Oman's defense heritage and its legacy of resilience.
