san jose church (iglesia de san jose)

Most Cuban cities have a Spanish style, safe, central area with shopping, old narrow streets, hustlers, local shops, churches and a museum. Insist on eating at a local home restaurant for about one convertible CUC! Make sure you take your own bottled water along.

You've went there, you've seen it from the outside and that's enough, trust me. There is nothing spectacular inside, just an average church.

It was being renovated at the time of my last visit. Great architecture, poor upkeeping. The church is not open for visit 24h a day, but you can go around the back and knock on the door. The y will let you in and take a look around.

Outside on the steps were beggars , but inside the Church was serene with beautiful craftsmanship, the locals are very proud of the church.

nothing sticks out about this church inside or out. i'm no expert but have been inside the sistine chapel & st. peter's basilica, etc so this really was pretty plain to me.

The official name for the park this church is situated in is Parque Carlos Manuel de Céspedes but everyone calls it Parque San Jose. The park is surrounded by a couple of small art galleries, the cultural center Casa de Iberoamerica (that hosts a week long festival in the fall and numerous music and dance events), a small museum, a couple of pizza places, a couple of CUC shops, a large bank, and the Ministry of Culture. On weekends men trade fighting cocks here.The church clock is notable because it actually works and is accurate. The interior is unique because it is asymmetrical with the north side being unfinished concrete (possibly intentional).

Une vieille eglise pas trop grande pas trop petite! Très haute! Fabriqué de vieux bois, plafonds avec des peintures de leur temps. Décoré comme nous pour Noël, la crèche Wow! Une statue du pape a l'extérieur! Très propre!

Se hace un esfuerzo por mejorar la imagen de la ya sentenaria iglesia de SAN Jose, ahora las obras se centran en sus alrededores.

Este lugar es muy bonito, repasas la historia de holguín, ahora lo está remosando y seguro que será una visita obligada, frente tiene la Casa Ibero y un Restaurante Excelente
