The Spanish Fortress of L'Aquila (Abruzzo, IT) was built in the first half of the 16th century, during an extraordinary strategic project to strengthen military defenses during the Spanish domination in southern Italy. It was never used for war. In the seventeenth century it was used as the residence of the Spanish governor and later as accommodation for French soldiers in the nineteenth century, and of German soldiers during the last world war. In 1902 it was declared national monument. Restored in 1951 by the Superintendency of Monuments and Galleries of Abruzzo and Molise, it has become the seat of the National Museum of Abruzzo. Inside there are also an Auditorium and a Conference Room. It was seriously damaged by the 2009 earthquake and is currently not accessible. Reconstruction work started in 2011 and it is currently ongoing.
