On the 510th birthday of one of the most patrimonial Villas of Cuba, UNESCO today recognizes its bastions, crucial in the cultural evolution of the region. The celebrations for the Week of Culture of the city at the beginning of February are marked by the celebration of the International Symposium Challenges in the Management and Management of Cities. Anne Lemaistre, director of the Regional Office of Culture for Cuba, the Dominican Republic and Haiti, referred on the opening day of the event to the responsibility of the Cuban school in terms of preservation. With nine World Heritage Sites and five Historic Centers recognized by UNESCO itself, ‘Cuba is an example that is much talked about on a global scale in this task because it values heritage beyond the commercial or tourist aspects, but rather impacts every action with a social purpose’, she said.
