Sumario:The constructive profile of three fortifications of the Captaincy of Pernambuco in the first decades of the 17th Century, before the Dutch occupation, revealed, through two remnants (Forte de São Francisco da Barra, 1606, and Fort de São Francisco de Olinda, 1620) and of iconographies (Fort de São Jorge, 1590), that these constructions were influenced by models described in European fortification treaties. Moreover, adaptations to the reality of material, labor, resources and colonizing posture have imposed certain restrictions and adaptations. Identifying these transformations was the main objective of this research.
