Gibraltar: situated at the highest point of the Rock of Gibraltar, 426 meters above sea level, O'Hara's Battery is a historic artillery emplacement named after General Charles O'Hara, Governor of Gibraltar. The site is distinguished by a 9.2-inch Mark X breech-loading gun on a high-angle mounting, installed in 1901 to defend the Strait of Gibraltar against hostile naval forces. Constructed in 1890, the battery remained a component of Gibraltar's coastal defence network through World War II. The gun was last fired during training exercises in 1976 and subsequently decommissioned. The cliff face beneath the battery consists of massive, pale-grey Jurassic limestone, formed approximately 200 million years ago from marine sediments. This monolithic promontory is a tectonic klippe, thrust upwards and overturned during the collision of the African and Eurasian plates. The rugged, vertical surface demonstrates extensive karst weathering, characterized by sharp ridges and deep fissures caused by chemical dissolution from rainwater.

When World War II broke out in 1939, the authorities evacuated the civilian population to Morocco, the United Kingdom, Jamaica, and Madeira so that the military could fortify Gibraltar against a possible German attack. By 1942 there were over 30,000 British soldiers, sailors, and airmen on the Rock. They expanded the tunnel system and made the Rock a keystone in the defence of shipping routes to the Mediterranean.
