The Fuerte de la Concepción y del Triunfo (lit. 'Fort of the Conception and the Triumph'), also known as Fuerte de Nuestra Señora de la Concepción del Triunfo (Fort of Our Lady of the Conception of the Triumph), Fort of Misamis, and Triunfo Fort,[2] is a fortress first built by Spanish Jesuit priest and commander José Ducos as a Spanish fortress in the old town of Misamis (now known as the modern city of Ozamiz) in the island of Mindanao.
The fort is an important historical landmark of the area as it symbolizes the city's cultural heritage.
