Red Fort in Ajman at a Glance

History of the Red Fort in Ajman

The Red Fort was built in the early twentieth century, between 1910 and 1928, while Sheikh Humaid bin Abdulaziz Al Nuaimi ruled Ajman. Al Manama was the emirate’s farming heartland, and a fort here protected the water wells, date palms and fields that fed Ajman after the decline of pearling.

படி Visit Ajman, the official tourism site, the fort originally had four rooms and two towers. A preservation project in the 1980s added a third tower, and later restoration gave the walls the reddish stone look you see today. Traditional builders used sandalwood for the beams and roof supports, and a drinking water well still stands close to the building.
