We are trying to visit at least one monument/museum a day. Today we went to the maritime museum which is in the walled city. Due to strategic position, Cartagena has a strong naval history and the museum gives lots of information. The city was Spanish, but the British and French wanted it and faught for it (classical in the Caribbean). For example, in XVII the British came with 186 ships (23 000men) to try to conquere Cartagena ...and lost. The French were more successful but looted the city.
