Iglesia de la Caridad

On the southeastern edge of the city, this church was originally constructed as a chapel in the 18th century. It got a couple of 20th-century renovations (in 1930 and 1945) and has a fine silver altar (c 1730) and image of the Virgin de la Caridad del Cobre, complete with an embossment of Cuba's national flower, la mariposa (white jasmine).
