SITE OF GENERAL ANTONIO MACEO’S 1895 LANDING

This national monument is located in an obliquely mapped spot on the eastern shore near Baracoa. It marks the spot where three of Cuba’s greatest national leaders and military officers landed in April 1895 to launch Cuba’s final war for Cuban independence: Generals Flor Crombet, José Maceo and the most legendary of them all, Antonio Maceo.
