Fort Hose


 

The Fort Hose was constructed in 1898 to monitor the activities of rebels who are against the Brooke administration. It also functioned as an administrative hub. The location was strategic since it was built on top of a hill overlooking the Baram River.

In 1994, the fort was destroyed by fire. However, it was reconstructed on the same site according to its original design and architecture. Upon completion, it was officially declared a museum.
