A good in Popular Council, the Sevillian cast dates from the first half of the twentieth century and was initially conceived as a middle -class residential space, with comfortable houses and educational and commercial centers for its residents.
It was not the most luxurious or wealthy neighborhood in Havana, but a quiet and cozy place, with parks such as Córdoba and the one appointed as the cast itself. There was also the well -known Villa Marista, founded as a school and sanatorium by the Catholic Congregation of the same name, then converted and until today in the headquarters and center of State Security Detention.
