About this Item

Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory located on the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, bordered by Spain to the north. Gibraltar is strategically positioned at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea, with Spain to its north and the Strait of Gibraltar separating it from Morocco in North Africa. The Rock of Gibraltar is its most prominent landmark. The term "lines of Gibraltar" refers to the strategic lines of defense established by the British to protect the Rock of Gibraltar and the territory itself. These lines were constructed during the 18th and 19th centuries and played a significant role in the defense of Gibraltar Image Size: 7 1/2 x 5 ins.
