Lonely Planet review for Museo de la Ciudad
Named after Spain’s King Carlos II, the Baluarte de San Carlos houses the Museo de la Ciudad. This small but worthwhile museum chronologically illustrates the city’s tempestuous history via well-displayed objects: specimens of dyewood, muskets, a figurehead from a ship’s prow and the like. The dungeon downstairs alludes to the building’s use as a military prison during the 1700s. The museum was closed during research.
