In the game
One of the Spanish forts ringing Havana's bay, part of the defences Edward has to slip past around the harbour.
The real place
Finished in 1577, Real Fuerza is the oldest stone fort in the Americas. It is a squat, moated fort beside the Plaza de Armas, crowned by a watchtower with the Giraldilla weathervane, the symbol of Havana.
Visiting
Old Havana is compact and best seen on foot early in the morning, before the heat and the tour groups. The fort now houses a small maritime museum with ship models from the age of the Spanish treasure fleets.
