This is the place where Costa Rica was defeated in the first of two battles, their land and freedom from the Filibusters invaders in 1856, commanded by William Walker from New Orleans, who pretended to make up Central America’s southern English-speaking colonies under his rule. The remains of the battle are still there as the ancient witness of Costa Rica’s history.
