Eine der sieben ursprünglichen Villas

Sie war die fünfte der sieben Villas, die Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar anlegen ließ, 1514 gegründet als Santa María del Puerto del Príncipe. Hier geboren: Nicolás Guillén, kubanischer Dichter, Schriftsteller (1902–1989), Carlos Juan Finlay, kubanischer Arzt, Wissenschaftler (1833–1915) und Yipsi Moreno, kubanische Hammerwerferin (geb. 1980). Hier gestorben: Adolfo Horta, kubanischer Boxer (1957–2016), José Olallo (1820–1889) und Miguel Caldés Luis, kubanischer Baseballspieler (1970–2000). Die fünfte der sieben zog 1528 von der Nordküste ins Landesinnere. Was dabei entstand, ist kein Schachbrett, sondern ein Gewirr. Wer sich in Kuba verlaufen will, tut es hier.
