Fort San Juan de Ulua was built by Spaniards during the colonial era. All the riches looted to Mexico by Spain came from this place, which was built by slaves forced to cut blocks of coral to build it. It also served as a jail, the most cruel of them, because the prisoners who came here never left, died sick, hungry, drowned or went crazy. |
