Hobe Fort Hobe Fort or Huwei Fort ( ) is located a short distance away from Fort Santo Domingo , near the town of Tamsui , Taipei on the island of Taiwan . In the 1880s Imperial China ( Qing Dynasty ) and France fought a war over today ' s Vietnam . In October 1884 in the Keelung Campaign , the French fleet sailed to northern Taiwan where it blockaded the ports of Keelung and Tamsui , and then landed troops at both places . The Chinese managed to turn back the assault at Tamsui , though Keelung fell to the French . Eventually the Chinese government signed a treaty granting the French extensive privileges . The Sino - French War ( 1884 - 1885 ) at Danshui proved to the Qing government that their coastline defense wasn ' t as secure as it needed to be . Following the war , the Chinese government decided to strengthen Taiwan ' s coastal defenses with forts at Keelung , Tainan - Fort Zeelandia and ( Fort Anping ) - and Tamsui . All in all the government reached the decision to construct ten new forts . Hobe Fort , or ' Bei Men Suo Yao ' , which translated to ' gate keeper of the northern Taiwan ' , was one of these ten forts . To ensure that the new forts would be up to date , the government commissioned the German military engineer Max E . Hecht to supervise the construction , which began in 1886 and finished in 1889 . When Hobe Fort was finished it had a rectangular structure and commanded the Tamsui River ; its armament consisted of a massive 10 - inch , one 8 - inch , and two 6 - inch guns . Because the fort never saw combat it remains almost entirely intact . The barracks that once stood in the central square are gone , as are the guns , but the outer walls , vaults and gate are close to their original conditions . One enters the fort through a gate that still bears the original inscription Beimensuoyao ( 北門鎖鑰 ) , given by governor Liu Mingchuan , who was governor at the time of the fort ' s construction . The vaults inside the fort now contain a museum about the French landing in Tamsui .
