An important port for the French and the site of an allied attack against the French (legaliste) Navy in the early years of WW2. Goggle Earth shows at least two sites of possible coastal artillery: one on Gore Island (the infamous slavery trading post) and one on the coast to the West of the city. I visited Goree a few years back (in february 2003) and a guide told me the gun positions were used to film the Guns of Navarone movies! True?
Here are the pics. Does someone know what guns were installed in the old days?
