    The elongated San Felipe Battery, designed by the military engineer Ignacio Sala in 1731 but completed in the 1770s, was designed with the strategic aim of protecting access to the port front of Cádiz.

      The elongated battery of San Felipe, projected in 1731 by the military engineer Ignacio Sala and completed in the 1770s, was developed with the strategic aim of protecting access to the port front of Cádiz. The San Felipe battery is arranged as a weak battery in an extension of the northern flank of the Baluarte de San Carlos. The structure of the Battery of San Felipe, like that of the Baluarte de San Carlos, consists of a continuous wall of wall to the outside and the inside of a series of vaults (in this case 14 plus 3 in the ramp) for different purposes.
