Citadelle Laferrière, known to locals simply as La Citadelle, is the largest fortress in the Americas.
The mountaintop fortress is massive, rising a vertiginous hundred and thirty feet from the mountaintop of Bonnet a L’Eveque, around 3000 feet above sea level. The Citadelle commands unparalleled views in every direction over the surrounding landscape of jungle-clad mountains, rivers and ocean.
Once you visit Citadelle Laferrière, you’ll see Haiti differently. 🇭🇹
