La Fortaleza from Ponce de Leon to Luis Fortuño: The oldest seat of power in Western Hemisphere


Ponce School of Medicine

Our school carries the name of Ponce, as in Juan Ponce de Leon who was the first Governor of Puerto Rico and the first European to set foot in North America.  This video by Elliot Erwitt depicts La Fortaleza, the oldest continous seat of power in the Americas. For more information visit www.seepuertorico.com and enjoy with a great sense of pride the different views of the Puerto Rican archipelago.
