Fort Charlotte in Lerwick, United Kingdom, is a cool five-sided artillery fort with a bit of a mysterious past. Built and rebuilt a few times since the 1600s, it's named after George III's wife but hasn't seen any real action since then. Nowadays, it's home to Shetland's Territorial Army and managed by Historic Scotland. You can check it out if you get the keys - just give 'em a call first!
