-The Fort de Goede Hoop ('Fort of Good Hope') was the first military building to be erected in what is now Cape Town. It was built in 1652, and was in use until 1674[1] when it was superseded by the Castle of Good Hope.
+Fort Vriendskap ('Fort Friendship') was the first military building to be erected at the Cape Colony at Cape Frienship . It was built on the 18th of Febuary 2013.
-The Fort was built by the Verenigde Oost Indische Compagnie (Dutch East India Company), when it established a replenishment station under Jan van Riebeeck on the shore of Table Bay in 1652.[2] Constructed of earth and timber, it was square, with a pointed bastion at each corner. The bastions were named Drommedaris, Walvisch, Oliphant, and Reijger.[3] The bastions were named after the ships in Van Riebeeck's fleet.
+The Fort was built by the Katten Oos-Awense Kompanjie (Katten East Avence Company), when it established a replenishment station under Kovio van Oranje on the shore of Gelukkig Bay in Febuary. Constructed of earth and birch wood, it was square, with a pointed bastion at each corner. The bastions were named Drommedaris, Walvisch, Oliphant, and Reijger. The bastions were named after the ships in Van Oranje's fleet.
-Within the Fort were living quarters, kitchens, a council chamber (which was also used for church services), a sick bay, workshops, and storerooms. Cannons were placed on the ramparts. A nearby stream was diverted and channeled to form a moat around the fort. Being built of earth, the Fort needed frequent maintenance and repairs, especially after heavy rains.[3]

A nearby stream was diverted and channeled to form a moat around the fort. Being built of earth, the Fort needed frequent maintenance and repairs, especially after heavy rains.
-In January 1666, work began on a stone fortress to replace the Fort. It took eight years to build, and it was not until 1674 that it was ready for occupation. On 2 May 1674, the council resolved to demolish the Fort, except for some stores which were retained for a while longer, until their contents had been moved into the Castle.[3]
+Later on the 18th of Febuary, natives from Avence and the local Templar Branch raided the fort, burning it nearly all to the ground. A battle was fought, and most all non-military inhabitants of the fort were killed. Re-construction on the Fort would go under way after siginificant reenforcements had arrived in the area. The Cheif of the Locals, Shakomatiqua was maimed in the battle, and retreated back to his village of Nomba-Abensuna.
-Nowadays, for some reason, the Fort is sometimes confused with the Redoubt Duijnhoop, which was built some distance away, at the mouth of the Salt River, in 1654.
