Trinidad was founded in 1514 under the name of Villa de la Santisima Trinidad. Its well-preserved buildings pay tribute to the sugar trade that dominated the Caribbean in the past. Today, it is a hub of the tobacco processing industry.

Located in Sancti Spiritus province, Trinidad lies in the middle of the Cuban mainland, at the foot of the Guamuhaya mountain range. During the 1600s, both British and Dutch pirates tried to wrest control of this province, but the Spanish garrison was successful in holding them off.

Trinidad was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988 due to its colonial buildings and cobbled streets.
