Granjita Siboney

 
Granjita Siboney is the farmhouse rented by some of the rebels of the July 26, 1953 attack on the barracks at Santiago de Cuba. Abel Santamaria used this house as a base to plan the attack. Following the tragic event, this house was attacked by Batista's police. Today Granjita Siboney is a museum with information on the attack, as well as personal items of some of the men involved, and weapons. The front entrance of the museum shows bullet holes to recreate the scene that followed the attack, although these are not the original bullet holes.
