Tren Blindado, Monument to the Battle of Santa Clara in Cuba.
The Armored Train Monument features original train cars, a commemorative obelisk, and a sculpture park situated next to the Santa Clara station.
The memorial marks the capture of a military train carrying 373 soldiers and weapons by Che Guevara's forces on December 29, 1958.
The monument stands as a symbol of the Cuban Revolution, displaying artifacts and exhibits that detail the strategic railway ambush.
Located on Avenida Liberación between the Havana-Santiago rail line and Cubanicay river, the site offers guided tours in multiple languages.
The derailed train cars from the actual battle now serve as museum rooms, preserving the original components of this historical event.
