Natal Nicolás Guillén's house
Investigaciones's present-day Center under the name of the national poet of Cuba is composed of the marked houses with the numbers 56 and 58 of the street Hermanos Agüero, formerly Saint Ignatius 2 and 2 1/2.
At the turn of the century XX, this building was one of the architectonic sets belonging to the domestic repertoire. The parent house, to beginnings of the century, Escoto belonged to the family. In the outbuilding - the ancient 2 1/2 resided in 1902 the marriage formed by the liberal politician and reporter Nicolás Guillén and your wife Algeria Batista and in that year he was born there his junior Nicolás Guillén Batista. In the outbuilding other families lived after and behind the triumph of the Revolution in 1959, the seat of the Union of Periodistas of Cuba was in her during years, while Escoto's house went away next to be a Collective Lawyer's Office. In 1992 both houses were rejuvenated and united to form the Cultural Nicolás Guillén Center once that own year was founded on July 10. The two houses have had numerous modifications and additions in time, which is why the features of the colonial house of the XIXth century with elements of the eclectic style of the first decades of the XX mix in them and inclusively functional spaces created in years recientes.La the façade with neoclassical features presents the ethos of this style with tall prop, parapet and large cups. At the present time in this real estate property it finds a little allegorical museum to the poet National nacional.Monumento from the 5/2/2014
