Obispo

Since its foundation in the 16th century, Obispo Street has been gaining more recognition for its numerous and special commercial corridors. The origin of its number is due to the fact that the Bishops Fray Jerónimo de Lara and Pedro Agustín Morell de Santa Cruz lived there. After the numerous names that this street received as Weyler in 1897, Pi Margall in 1905 and others was taken over in 1936 by the name Bishop. Calle Obispo has an important historical reference and extends from the Bernaza street where the Floridita is located to the Plaza de Armas very close to the port of Havana.
