🎧 Listen to Introduction
Commercial and political competition in the Caribbean in the 17th century led to the construction of a series of large fortifications on rocky promontories to protect the vital port of Santiago. This complex of forts, magazines, bastions, and batteries is the most complete and best-preserved example of Spanish American military architecture, based on Italian and Renaissance design principles.
