Fortress
A fortress often touches confinement and control — being shut into an undesirable position by enemies, or holding power by confining others. The dream may ask where you feel walled in by forces working against you, whether you're the prisoner or the keeper, and how the thick stones around you protect, imprison, or some mix of both.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for fortress, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream that you are confined in a fortress, denotes that enemies will succeed in placing you in an undesirable situation.
To put others in a fortress, denotes your ability to rule in business or over women.
