Compared to other countries in the region, Cuba has plenty defensive
structures. Historically, Cuba was a sought-after land and defenses were needed to be built to
protect it from intruders.
The Castillo de la Real Fuerza here is the oldest
Spanish fortification in Latin America and also one of the most beautiful one. The Morro Castle in the capital city of Havana is one of the most
visited tourist attractions of Cuba.
Also in Havana, one can find the biggest fortress of the Americas, the
Fortaleza de San Carlos de la Cabaña or
simply, La Cabaña.
