A subordinate clause, or dependent clause, will begin with a subordinate conjunction or relative pronoun, so as to join the clause with the main sentence, because they cannot stand alone. It will also contain both subject and predicate. Taking this into account, the subordinate clause is:

B) Which was erected to guard the harbor.
