FORT SAN MIGUEL :

 Built in the late eighteenth century for fear of being attacked by pirates, it is a significant monument of military architecture of the city. The quadrangular building has two bridges, two small bastions, the guardroom, the accommodations for the troops, warehouses and kitchen. Until the mid-twentieth century, it was used as a dwelling unit for the federal army, and after 10 years of neglect was reopened as a museum.
