Fort Margherita is one of the most important monuments in Sarawak’s rich history. Situated across the Sarawak River, near Astana, the former fortress is now converted into the Brooke Gallery which houses rare memorabilia of the Brooke family and history of Sarawak.
Built by Charles Brook, who was then the ruler of Sarawak, the beautiful yet sturdy fortress is a truly multifaceted structure. Fort Margherita had been used for various important purposes through the years making it one of the most historical landmarks in Malaysia.
