San Francisco Church, Camaguey, Cuba (circa 1915) This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and spiritual significance of the San Francisco Church in the heart of Camaguey, Cuba. Dating back to the early 16th century, this historic church is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of this vibrant city. The photograph, taken around 1915, showcases the church's intricate facade adorned with ornate carvings and intricate details.
