via various sources, 05 March 2024: The south moat of Fort Cornwallis, part of a comprehensive restoration project, is scheduled to open to the public on July 7, following the completion of renovation efforts. Penang Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow announced the opening date and highlighted the ongoing restoration of the west moat, expected to be completed by July 7, 2025.
The south moat of Fort Cornwallis, currently undergoing renovation, is set to be completed soon and will be open to the public on July 7 this year, Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said.
He said once the restoration works come to an end, the public will be able to enjoy the component, which is part of the broader Fort Cornwallis restoration project.
The restoration of the west moat, however, is slated for later completion and will be open to the public from July 7, 2025.
“There is still a lot of work to be done but we are happy to note that the south moat will be open this year, allowing the public to enjoy part of this historic structure,” Chow said after visiting the Fort Cornwallis earlier this morning.
