This museum is located in a small fort at the end of the Malecon and will detain you for no more than 30mins unless you speak fluent Spanish, but it is a cute, old fashioned and friendly museum and certainly worth a nosy in a town with few real attractions. Pop in, and look over the cannons towards the statue of Colombus.
situé à l'entrée de la ville ce musée ne présente qu'un intérêt secondaire. Il y a tellement de sites a découvrir dans cette région que l'on devient un peu difficile !!!! , si vous avez du temps allez y quand même .
We walked along the Malecon to the Spanish fortress which houses the museum.The building itself is impressive and you get the feel of the historical importance during the Spanish times .The museum is small with odd collection of artefacts ,Taino skeletons ,shells ,armoury ,dolls and dolls furniture !!Friendly staff .
Le musée est bien mais ce qui a de mieux c'est une visite avec le guide Daniel qui parle français et qui est un raconteur hors de l'ordinaire.
me gusto la amavilidad como el historiador harman te muestra todo el museo no me gusto que esta falta de rrreparasion
Muy recomendado visitar, esconde mucha historia tras la fortaleza, que tiene mucho que ver con nuestro pasado más directo
i went there to visit my friends who work at the museo, and to review the display of the DiGirgio-Huart Fruit Company, a banana company that operated from Baracoa and New Orleans fro 1918-the 1950s.
Pas grand chose à voir mais un petit côté "bricolage" sympathique pour essayer de faire une attraction supplémentaire avec quelques souvenirs locaux. La personne la plus intéressée était sans doute mon accompagnatrice cubaine qui découvrait un pan de l'histoire locale.
O acervo é muito reduzido, mas os funcionários são bastante atenciosos. Para quem gosta muito de história é recomendado, fora isso, melhor passear apenas por fora do museu.
This fortress is the oldest in Cuba, built by the Spaniards at a very strategic place to protect the city from the pirates. There is another fortress at the port entrance and one on the top of a heel which was a castle and was recently converted to a nice hotel.
