History and Strategic Location
Strategically situated at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, the Rock of Gibraltar has long played a pivotal role in the region’s history, commanding a prime position at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea.
This fortified British Overseas Territory has been a strategic military stronghold for centuries, guarding the vital maritime trade routes between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean.
Controlled by the British since 1704, Gibraltar is a highly contested territory with a complex political and cultural history.
Its unique geographic position has made it a sought-after military stronghold, with the Strait of Gibraltar separating Europe and Africa.
The Rock of Gibraltar is a limestone promontory that rises over 1,400 feet above sea level, providing an excellent vantage point for surveillance and defense.
Gibraltar’s strategic importance has made it a center of international tensions and power struggles throughout its history.
Today, Gibraltar remains a key geopolitical asset, with its deep-water port and airfield serving as important assets for the United Kingdom.
Monkeys of Gibraltar
The Barbary macaques, or ‘Apes of Gibraltar,’ are the only wild monkey population in Europe.
These fascinating primates have become an iconic part of Gibraltar’s landscape and a major draw for visitors to the Rock. The monkeys roam freely around Gibraltar, and it’s not uncommon to spot them scurrying along the streets or scaling the cliffs.
Visitors can learn about the monkeys’ history, behavior, and conservation efforts during their tour. Though they may appear friendly, it’s important to admire them from a distance and avoid feeding them, as they’re protected by law.
The Barbary macaques are a beloved symbol of Gibraltar and an integral part of the Rock’s unique identity.
