Plymouth's maritime history is anchored by the 17th-century Royal Citadel, a bastion fort designed by Sir Bernard de Gomme to defend the coastline. The Barbican’s Mayflower Steps mark the 1620 departure point of the Pilgrim Fathers, while the Plymouth Naval Memorial on the Hoe honors thousands of sailors from both World Wars.
