The Castillo de la Real Fuerza Castle is a great sample of military architecture during the Spain's rule over the Caribbean. It is located in the Plaza de Armas Square in Old Havana facing the sea. The Castle, as well as the rest of the old city’s fortifications, has been declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

One of the first castle built by Spanish. The museum is interesting with history about Havana and the Spanish galleons. You can also admire la Giraldilla: the statue symbol of Havana.
