Fuerte San Cristóbal in Santa Barbara

Abierto todos los dias desde las 09:00, la espera es de 30 minutos cuando hay .uchas personas, no hay exhibición de artesanías o artículos de la época, solo la fortaleza vacía... Falta que las autoridades levanten el perfil del lugar.

This site used to be free of charge but now charges 60L (internat. tourists), but its not really clear what youre paying for. Its a fort and you have some nice views over the city. Theres a (very limitedfixed art exhibition. But nothing else. Theres construction going on and maybe this will add value in the future. But now we just got charged for nothing much really.

Muy lindo lugar para hacer turismo y buena vida nocturna

Nice place!

Excelente lugar, aunque sus productos en los souvenir son muy caros.

Muy bonito y hermoso lugar conocer más sobre nuestras culturas y antepasados

Small fortress on the hill. Good panorama to the town and national park

Aquí se guarda parte de la historia de Gracias, Lempira. Lastimosamente por la pandemia no abren la casa donde se pueden apreciar las esculturas y pinturas que cuentan la historia del fuerte mandado a construir por uno de los presidentes Juan Lindo, de hecho allí está la tumba donde descansan sus resto.Disfruta de las preciosas vistas al pueblo y Parque Celaque el cual se encuentra cerca de allí.

Quite pretty, not much to it

A beautiful fortress of the spanish colonial epoque, The Fortress of San Cristóbal is in the city of Gracias, Lempira; Honduras. The site is small but has a 360° view of all the town, where you can see all the heritage architecture around, is very easy to access and the cost is very accesible to the public, kids under 10 y/o does not pay entry, when you get inside the site you will found with some sculptures outside and some military artefacts of the time, some story is shown inside were they tell all history of the site and the city, is a heritage architecture building of Honduras so if you like history and architecture you will love it, you can take amazing photos up there. 100% recomended.

Valió la pena subir, a pie o en carro el recorrido se puede hacer. Las obras plasmadas en la roca son geniales y la vista desde la fortaleza es excelente 👌

The best spot in Gracias to see the town.

Me encantó el lugar lo recomiendo 100%, tiene buen paisaje, está cerca del centro y muy lindo lugar para tomar fotos...

El fuerte San Cristóbal, es un momento histórico construido allá por 1876 en una pequeña cima de la ciudad de Gracias, en el departamento de Lempira. Destacan sus torreones de vigilancia asi como sus cañones. Se encuentra también ta tumba del expresidente hondureño Juan Lindo, con una placa y la sabía frase: "Puedes ser un gobernante odiado de tu tiempo, pero si quieres que te favorezca el voto de las generaciones venideras, ¡Abre escuelas!" Si visitas Gracias, Lempira, no puedes dejar de visitar este lugar, la administración cobra a los turistas nacionales L30.00.

Great experience! Awesome place to know more about the history of the town, Gracias. Its always good to know some history about your country. Cheers to everyone who decides to go there

Historic fort to admire scenic views of the town and learn about the history of Gracias and Honduras

A historic Fort overlooking the city of Gracias, has great views of the city and host a gallery for cultural exhibitions

Great touristic experience! The fort is located at the feet of Mountain Celaque, Honduras tallest peak. The fort has the remains of a former president, and lodges a museum and an artistic collection. Recommended!

Short and easy walk from the center of Gracias. You can see the scenery but its not fabilous. Still you want to get here because there isnt much to see in Gracias. Foreigners entrance fee is Lps. 60.

A must visit in the city of Gracias, with an amazing view and a peaceful atmosphere.

Nice place!

Run-of-the-mill fort as forts go with some decent views (assuming the clouds have not inundated you). Probably the most notable part of the fort wasnt even the fort and the stone sculptures outside! Indeed, one should really go for those!

Greatly preserved with amazing views.

nice
