The Museum of the Revolution ''(Museo de la Revolución)'', designed in Havana by Cuban architect Carlos Maruri, and the Belgian Paul Belau, who came up with an eclectic design, harmoniously combines Spanish, French and German architectural elements. The museum was the Presidential Palace in the capital; today, its displays and documents outline Cuba's history from the beginning of the ''neo-colonial period''. The building was the site of the Havana Presidential Palace Attack (1957) by the Directorio Revolucionario Estudiantil.
