Museum of the Revolution, Havana

The Museum of the Revolution located in the historic Old Havana district of Cuba is a testament to the country's rich cultural heritage.

Once the Presidential Palace of all Cuban presidents from Mario García Menocal to Fulgencio Batista, this iconic building was transformed into a museum after the Cuban Revolution.

Today, it stands as a symbol of the country’s commitment to preserving its history and culture. The museum also serves as a reminder of the challenges that the country has faced in its journey towards independence and self-reliance.

Despite the attack on the palace building by the Directorio Revolucionario 13 de Marzo in 1957, the museum has stood the test of time and continues to attract visitors from all over the world with its fascinating exhibits and artifacts.

A visit to the Museum of the Revolution is a must for anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of Cuba‘s rich cultural heritage and its struggles for independence.
