List of castles in Puerto Rico information


Castillo San Cristobal, in San Juan

This is a list of castles in Puerto Rico. Some cannot properly be described as true castles. They are primarily country houses, follies, or other types of buildings built to give the appearance of a castle. They are usually designed in the Spanish Colonial Revival, Spanish Colonial architecture, or Neoclassical styles. Most, however, were designed as fortifications, in particular for military defense purposes.
