The Angostura Fortress was a Paraguayan Army fortification, located by pykysyry stream (a tributary to Paraguay major river) rio Paraguai, in Paraguayan territory.

During the Paraguayan War,[A] (also known as the War of the Triple Alliance[B] and the Great War[4][C] in Paraguay), was a South American war fought from 1864 to 1870 between Paraguay and the Triple Alliance nations ( Argentina, the Empire of Brazil, andUruguay). Angostura Fortresss along with Lomas Valentinas, were a battery of Paraguayan defense line fortifications strategically located. The Paraguayan units surrendered the fortification (December 27, 1868), being occupied by Imperial Brazilian Army forces (December, 30, 1868), This led to a series of victorious battles won by Triple Alliance  armies (also known as December Campaigns)
