Hello everyone, happy start of the week and happy day ...

Today I want to share some photographs taken by me in 2008, in the Castillo San Antonio de Eminencia that is located in the City of Cumaná in the State of Sucre #Venezuela; it was built in the seventeenth century to protect the city from pirates and escurciones of Spanish, Portuguese and English, it is shaped like a 4-point star.

It still has the original cannons and shackles, in the photographs you can see the spaces that were used as dungeons for the prisoners of the time.
