This work aims to analyze aspects related to the history of the Santa Cruz de Itamaracá fortress. A historiographical review was carried about the defensive constructions located in Pernambuco and Northern Captainships. We also seek to understand the geostrategic importance of this construction, between the 17th and 18th centuries, and its position as part of the defense of the Captainships of Itamaracá and Pernambuco. Finally, we carried a study on the concept of cultural heritage, seeking to understand the meaning and the importance of cultural assets and how the Itamaracá fortress is part of this cultural heritage composed of several fortifications scattered across Brazil.
