🎧 Listen to Introduction
Havana was founded by the Spanish in 1519. By the 17th century it had become one of the main shipbuilding centres in the Caribbean. Although today Havana is a sprawling metropolis of 2 million inhabitants, its old centre still retains interesting Baroque and Neoclassical buildings, as well as clusters of private houses with arcades, balconies, cast-iron gates and interior courtyards.
