Royal Citadel Description
The Royal Citadel, east of the Hoe, was built in 1566-70; its inner courtyard is graced by a statue of George II. At the southwest corner there is an aquarium belonging to the Marine Biological Society, which forms part of a marine laboratory and is well worth visiting. A road runs around the citadel, affording excellent views, including the remains of the old town, with its few remaining old houses.
