During the second half of the fifteenth century, the Fortress of Sagres became the expansion center of the portuguese navy. It received visits from scholars and navigator’s from a wide range of nationalities.

The army from the corsair Francis Drake attacked Sagres in 1587, sacking it violently and burning it. After this attack, in which several fortifications were seriously damaged, it was considered the idea of modernising the fortress. It was modernised in 1631 by Felipe IV de Castella, following the plans of Alexandre Massai, an italian engineer. 

In 1755, the Fortress of Sagres was damaged once again, but this time because of a tsunami. It wasn’t repaired until the reign of Maria I de Portugal (1777-1816), who replaced the medieval fortress walls and adapted them to the defense necessities of that era.
