Fuerte De La Concepción
The Fuerte de la Concepción (English: Fort of the Conception) was a Spanish military fortress guarding the port and town of Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, in the 18th and 19th centuries. In 1986, the fort's single surviving building was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places, and later on the Puerto Rico Register of Historic Sites and Zones in 2000.

Notes
- ^ Sources authoritative with regard to National Register listing parameters give different forms of the fort's name, including Fuerte de la Concepción from the fort's nomination form, Fuerte de la Concepcion from the official weekly announcement of National Register actions, and Fuerte de la Conception from the comprehensive National Register database. This article adopts the first of these, Fuerte de la Concepción, because it offers the most proper Spanish orthography.
