Teatro Martí
Teatro Martí is a
Partido Autonomista.[1] In 1899, it was renamed Eden Garden, before changing its name again a year later to Teatro José Martí. In 1901, it held the Convención Constituyente which established the independent Republic of Cuba.[1] At the time, it had a capacity of 1,200 persons.[2]
The theater was abandoned in the 1970s before reopening on 24 February 2014 in the presence of Raúl Castro. In 2015, it was awarded the Premio Nacional de Restauración. In 2016, the restored Teatro Martí appeared on Cuban postage stamps.[3]
