  Wonderful place to have some insight into the Cuban freedom struggle and to appreciate hardships faced and commitment & leadership shown by the leaders. My only concern was that they don't take card payments even though it was written cards accepted but don't let that deter you from visiting. Must visit place in Havana.

  The museum of all Cuban revolution history. It used to be the Presidential House for most Cuban Presidents. You can move back to the 1950's and read the most significant parts of Cuba's revolution history. I would say it's a bit overpriced regarding the exhibitions, but worth a visit.
