Construction commenced in 1634 and the fort was redesigned in the 19th century. With its impressive walls reaching over 100 feet above the crashing waves, its primary function was to guard San Juan against land attacks.

San Cristobal is attached to El Morro by colossal walls filled with cannon-firing positions. Daily free tours are offered in English and in Spanish.

Must See in Puerto Rico - El Morro

El Morro is located in Antiquo in Puerto Rico and is fast becoming a "must see" destination.

This structure is over 500 years old and truly deserves its place of honor in the National Historic Register. The English and the Dutch attacked the Morro repeatedly in its time and yet, it still stands.

Located on the San Juan Bay , the six-story fort was originally constructed in 1540, although its exterior walls were not erected for another 200 years. Inside the walls is a veritable labyrinth of chambers, barracks, hallways and prison cells. The fort was given a complete facelift in 1992 and tours are given daily throughout the year.

With admission just $3, this is a fun and affordable destination that is good for couples, seniors and even the kiddos will enjoy this destination.
