They were built during the 17th and 18th centuries in order to defend Spanish ships and protect transatlantic trade in the Caribbean.  These fortifications form what is essentially a fortified town, with an architecture that resembles that of the medieval period. These military structures were part of a more extensive defence system that was also present in Mexico, Colombia and Cuba. During the time it remained operative the fortifications were destroyed and rebuilt, also adapted to the particularity of the environment where it is located. The ruins tell a story of strength and adaptation to the environment currently affected by erosion. Date Submitted Date of submission of the resource.
