Located in the town of Omoa, it is

possibly the most important colonial
defense structure in all of Central
America, an enormous stone construction
completed in 1775 with the purpose of
protecting the north of Honduras from
corsairs and pirates. Towards the end of
the colonial era and with the beginning of
independence, it was occupied as a gloomy
prison, to which terrible torture of
prisoners is attributed.
Today virtually all the original structure
survives, being possible to visit both its
numerous enclosures and an adjoining
museum that tells the most important
events of its history.
One of the most fascinating tourist places
of Honduras, ancient capital of a Mayan
kingdom that prospered between the 5th and

pyramids, squares, stelae and other
monuments.

National Park Meambar Azul and the one

The site with extensive tourism

Mysterious archaeological site located

in the Sierra de Agalta, where hundreds
of human skeletons and remains of vases
hidden among the rock formations of a
cave were found, dating from
approximately the year 1000 BC. C.
Today a circuit of 500 meters allows you
to enter the depth of the rock, between
stalactites and stalagmites of unique
shapes, passing through the ritual
chamber where some bones have been
preserved in time to be covered by a
layer of resplendent calcium.
