San Felipe Castle is an eighteenth-century star fort protecting Puerto Cabello in Venezuela. It was named in honour of Philip V, King of Spain at the time of its construction in the 1730s. It has an alternative name Castillo Libertador , explained by its connection with Simón Bolívar, known as El Libertador because of his role in Latin American independence.
