Located on the northern side of the Plaza de la Revolución Square, this star-shaped tower is the tallest structure in Havana. The José Martí Memorial is considered the largest monument to a writer in the world. It is 109 meters tall.
José Martí (born January 28, 1853) is considered a Cuban national hero due to his involvement in the fight for independence from Spain.
On the ground floor is a museum to wonder around and after you finish, you can make your way up (via internal lift) and get a stunning panoramic view of the city in all directions.
