This statue is of a Gibraltar Defence Force soldier in summer battle dress. His guard duty posture is symbolic of the role undertaken in defence of the Rock during WWII. The monument is dedicated to all Gibraltarians who served in the Gibraltar Volunteer Corps, the Gibraltar Defence Force and the Royal Gibraltar Regiment.
The Koehler Depressing Carriage was a novel type of gun carriage invented in 1782 by Lt George Frederick Koehler of the Royal Artillery. It was devised to enable cannons to be fired at a steeply downward-facing angle and was made necessary by the peculiar circumstances that the British Army faced during the Great Siege of Gibraltar between 1779–83.
The Tunnel Restaurant and Bar
A forty-foot-long bar with hundreds of different beers and drinks and an extensive menu, makes the Tunnel an ideal contender for the Gibraltar pub and restaurant scene.
The Square Cafe
After seeing Grand Casemate Square you can indulge in some nice food, British or Mediterranean, and its regulars advise you to do it at The Square.
