Informative, historic museum
The museum of the Revolution is housed in a beautiful building: the former presidential palace to all presidents of Cuba prior to the Cuban revolution.
The museum's main highlight is the Cuban revolution and seeks to inform its visitors about the event, the Cuban struggle for independence and the events leading up to it. As such, many artifacts from that time are also displayed in the museum. This includes several aircrafts in the back, as well as a tank at the entrance.
Apart from this, it's simply amazing to wander the grand rooms of this building and it really shows the lavish opulence of the leaders of the time. The building itself is grand and majestic and is another prime example of neo-classical architecture. The museum is also home to several powerful and color paintings.
Overall, the museum is quite informative and there are interesting exhibits. It chronicles the Cuban revolution and is housed in a beautiful building that still stands majestically. Highly recommend as a museum to visit if in Havana.
