On 17 April 2019 Correos de México issued this stamp to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the port of Veracruz. The tower of the long-inactive San Juan de Ulúa lighthouse is shown at the left side of the stamp. This was the first lighthouse on Mexico’s Gulf coast and is located on the old fortress that protected the city since it’s early days.
