Castillo de San Salvador de la Punta is a Spanish fort in the city of Havana, Cuba.
Although construction began in 1590, it took decades to complete; situated across the harbor entrance from the Castillo Morro, the two forts were close enough to permit the use of a large metal chain which, when tightened, could protect the harbor from enemy incursions.[1]
After Stede Bonnet's sugar was confiscated in 1715, Edward Kenway infiltrated the fort to retrieve his own stolen goods – a blood vial and map bound for Laureano de Torres y Ayala, governor of Cuba and Grand Master of the Caribbean Templars – though he had to left Bonnet's sugar crates behind as he couldn't carry them.[2]
In 1722, Edward – then an Assassin ally – infiltrated the stronghold once more and killed Torres' body double before battling and eventually overpowering the governor's right-hand man, El Tiburón.[2]
