PROVINCIAL MUSEUM OF HISTORY

First notice the neoclassical building, built in 1862, and the patio with Moorish influences. Inside, the museum's archaeological collections are divided into five halls. Let us look at the key: a stone axe dating from the pre-Columbian era, found in the vicinity of Holguín in 1860. See also the section on slavery and revolution with the tragic episode of the 23 Holguín martyrs murdered by Batista Police during the Pascuas sangrientas (bloody Easter).
