Morro Castle (
Spanish:
Castillo de los Tres Reyes Magos del Morro), named after the three
biblical Magi, is a fortress guarding the entrance to Havana bay in
Havana,
Cuba. The design was drawn up by the Italian engineer
Battista Antonelli; originally under the control of
Spain, the fortress was captured by the British in 1762, and was returned to the Spanish under treaty terms a year later.
