Diên Khánh Citadel

The Diên Khánh Citadel is situated in Diên Khánh Townlet. The Citadel was built by French officer Olivier de Puymanel for Nguyễn Ánh in 1793 with an area of 36,000 square meters according to the Vauban military architecture which was popular in Western Europe in 17th - 18th centuries.[2]

The citadel's wall was in an inequilateral hexagon with a height of 3.5m. The outer face was vertically constructed while the inner was a little bit sloping by two terraces forming a favorable pavement. Inside the corners, there were large fields which were convenient for military residents. On the top of the corners there stood fortresses 2m high with canons above. On the roof of the citadel, there were closet bamboo and other barricade trees. Surrounding the citadel were moats of 4 to 5 meters deep, 10 meters wide, flooded by water.

At first the citadel had 6 gates but now only 4 remain which are the East Gate, West Gate, Front Gate (to the south) and Back Gate (to the north). There was also a royal palace, private residents of feudal mandarins, warehouses and jails.
