Municipal Museum of Regla
Museums and Art Galleries - City of Havana
Regions of Cuba - Travel Guide

The territory now occupied by Regla and Casablanca, on the far side of Havana Harbor, was the site of an Indian senlement in the 16th century. 

A hundred years later, a pious landowner donated land near the sea for the shrine of Our Lady of Regla, the nucleus of the future town.

The Municipal Museum reveals the history of the founding and development of Regla, one of the towns in Cuba that has done the most to preserve its traditions.

People from Regla participated in all the country's independence struggles in the 19th and 20th centuries; they were illustrious and noble freedom fighters whose documents, weapons, pictures and personal belongings have been preserved for posterity.

The rooms devoted to religious syncretism center on the worship of Yemaya, patron goddess of Havana Harbor, whose festival is celebrated on September 7 with a procession along the streets of Regia. 

The collection includes sacred objects, accessories attributes and religious pieces. 

A special place has been reserved for the mysterious Tabla de lfa and its shells, which formed an ancient divining instrument.

Collections:

  • Archaeology
  • History of Cuba
  • Folklore

Regla.

Open:
Tuesday to Saturday: 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.
