Überblick

Trinidad is a town in the province of Sancti Spíritus, central Cuba. Together with the nearby Valle de los Ingenios, it has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1988, because of its historical importance as a center of the sugar trade in the 18th and 19th centuries. Trinidad is one of the best-preserved cities in the Caribbean from the time when the sugar trade was the main industry in the region.

Trinidad ist ein(e) Kleinstadt in Sancti Spíritus, Kuba. Es liegt etwa bei 21.804°, -79.985°.

Eine der sieben ursprünglichen Villas

Sie war die dritte der sieben Villas, die Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar anlegen ließ, 1514 gegründet als La Santísima Trinidad. Hier geboren: Catalina Berroa, amerikanische Komponistin (1849–1911), Yaniel Carrero, kubanischer Sprinter (geb. 1995) und José Manuel Jiménez Berroa, kubanischer Komponist, Pianist, Musikpädagoge (1851–1917). Hier gestorben: Manuel Eugenio Fajardo Rivero (1930–1960). Die dritte der sieben. Ihr Reichtum kam nicht aus dem Hafen, sondern aus dem Tal dahinter. Als das Zuckergeld versiegte, blieb die Stadt stehen, wie sie war — und genau das hat sie erhalten.

Es liegt in der Provinz Sancti Spíritus.

Die nächstgelegenen erfassten Orte im Atlas sind Cienfuegos (60 km im Nordwesten), Playa Ancón (7 km im Süden) und Santa Clara (67 km im Norden).

Es wird mit Kolonialarchitektur, UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe, historische Altstadt und Livemusik in Verbindung gebracht.
