Castillo de San Pedro de la Roca
Commercial and political rivalries in the Caribbean region in the 17th century resulted in the construction of this massive series of fortifications on a rocky promontory, built to protect the important port of Santiago. This intricate complex of forts, magazines, bastions and batteries is the most complete, best-preserved example of Spanish-American military architecture, based on Italian and Renaissance design principles.
The fortress is about 6 km outside Santiago de Cuba and one of the first destinations which every visitor should arrange in his program.

Schön, Wolfgang! Abends wird nach einigen Böllerschüssen aus einer antiken Kanone von einer weiblichen guardia in historischen Kostümen die kubanische Flagge eingeholt. Ein sehenswertes Spektakel.HG Matthias
