The Museum of the Revolution (Spanish: Museo de la Revolución) is a museum located in the Old Havana section of Havana, Cuba. The museum is housed in what was the Presidential Palace of all Cuban presidents from Mario García Menocal to Fulgencio Batista. It became the Museum of the Revolution during the years following the Cuban revolution.
The museum's exhibits Cuban history are largely devoted to the period of the revolutionary war of the 1950s and to the country's post-1959 history. Portions of the museum are also devoted to pre-revolutionary Cuba, including its War of Independence waged against Spain.
Behind the building lies the Granma Memorial, a large glass enclosure which houses the Granma, the yacht which took Fidel Castro and his revolutionaries from Mexico to Cuba for the revolution. Around the Granma an SA-2 Guideline surface-to-air missile of the type that shot down a U.S. Lockheed U-2 spyplane during the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the engine of the U-2 airplane is displayed. There are also various vehicles and tanks used in the revolution displayed. Near museum located SU-100, a Soviet tank destroyer.

  • Ok ,para los que no estan aqui para peliar! la cancion se llama amor con amor! the song is call "amor con amor"

  • suena como la orquesta de la luz

  • el tema se llama"salsa loca"? tremendos arreglos, tremenda voz tiene esa mujer!

  • @h9socialist GO BACK TO CUBA AND TAKE YOUR FAMILY TOO! I HATE COMMUNISTS! While you hate Capitalism you are at McDonalds eating a triple quater pounder while your brothers and sisters in Cuba are eating rationed food by Raul. I guess that's half a potato, an ounce of rice, and a slice of bread!!! VIVA ESTADO UNIDOS!!!

  • Some day soon, a museum will be built in Cuba to commemorate the death and suffering of Cuba's sons and daughters while living under half a century of Castro's tyranny. Other than hate, hunger and death, Castro, the psycopath has brought little else to Cuba.

  • ALL that is good about Cuba was built prior to the repressive Castro dictatorship. For some reason thousands jump into the shark infested Atlantic Ocean to escape it.

    VIVA LAS DAMAS DE BLANCO, women doing for Cuba what no man has.....

  • Can I get the name of the song?

  • To my Cuban brothers and sisters, your plight for freedom and democracy does not go unnoticed. Thank you Zapata and Pedro Luis Boitel for your hunger strikes. Thank you Dr. Elias Biscet, Antunez, Lazaro Farinas, Joanny Sanchez for opposing Castro's tyranny. Than you Ladies in White for your peaceful marches. Castro is the Stalin of the caribbean.

  • To my Cuban Brothers and Sisters -- If you live in Cuba, THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS! Capitalism is exploitation! Capitalism is privately owned tyranny! Fidel, Raul and Che were absolutely right. There are those of us in the U.S. who hate capitalism, and it's highest stage, imperialism. Viva la Revolucion Cubana!!!!

  • NO ME CANSA...ABAJO LA DICTADURA AMERICANA ,VIVA LA REVOLUCION CUBANA
