Fortaleza de San Carlos de Perote

Memorials	:	1
Location	:	Perote, Perote Municipality, Mexico
Coordinate	:	19.5734580, -97.2446250
Description	:	Perote Castle (Castillo de Perote,) was originally built by the Spanish, and was used by both the Spanish and Mexican governments as a prison. Among its more illustrious occupants were the Texans captured during the ill-fated Santa Fe Expedition of 1843. During the Mexican American War and the U.S. occupation, 1847-1848, it was used as a military hospital. Consequently, the area surrounding the moat is littered with the forgotten graves of hundreds, perhaps thousands of U.S. soldiers.
