Havana's earliest black hermitage was Espiritu Santo, created in 1638 and devoted to the Holy Spirit. By 1648 the devotion had become so strong and the neighborhood around it had grown so populous that church officials declared Espiritu Santo an auxiliary parish, and by 1661 the brothers had an auxiliary church (299).
