Dugo se nazivala tvrđava barona Degenfelda, po mletačkom vojskovođi njemačkog podrijetla, koji je obranio grad od Turaka.
Tvrđava Barone je, iako žurno građena, napravljena po standardima onog doba, u obliku nepravilne zvijezde.
Tvrđava je dugo vremena bila zapuštena. Godine 2015. tvrđava je obnovljena, uz pomoć novih tehnologija proširene stvarnosti (AR).Kroz ovakvu tehnologiju na Tvrđavi Barone posjetitelj može upoznati Šibenik 17. stoljeća i njegov fortifikacijski sustav, te proživjeti opasnost opsada 1646./47., najvećih osmanskih napada na Dalmaciju, tijekom kojih su izgrađene dvije tvrđave koje su obranile Šibenik.

For a long time it was named the fortress of the Baron Degenfeld, after the Venetian soldier of the German origin that lead the defence of the town from the Turks.
