Colonial Fortresses
How has the city of Havana protected itself for more than five centuries? Once one of the most advanced of it's kind worldwide, fortresses built during Spanish colonial times stood as pinnacles of austerity, militar and tecnological development. Put to the test constantly they protected the city from pirates, corsairs and nations. They helped create the identity of a nation preserving it's citizens and gradually forged our cultural landscape.
