Casa de Cortés
Casa de Cortés Review
Although locals call it Casa de Cortés, the 16th-century customs house actually had nothing to do with the conquistador. Little is left of the structure, which once housed 22 rooms surrounded by a huge courtyard. Its crumbling masonry has been reclaimed by clinging vines and massive tree roots.
- Address: Av. Independencia at Calle Ruiz Cortés, La Antigua, Veracruz, 91687
- Location: La Antigua
