   The fort’s original construction is dated to the 16th century (around 1500‑1550), based on radiocarbon analysis.

It was occupied by the Wahhabists between 1808‑1810. In 1925, the British naval forces bombarded the fort, destroying three of its towers during an action related to anti‑slavery enforcement.
