Church and convent of Belen. The massive Convent and Church located in Old Havana was begun in 1712 completed in 1718. Construction finances were seeded by a posthumous grant from Bishop Diego Evelino Hurtado de Compostela (1638-1704) of Santiago de Cuba with the balance of funds raised from alms. Originally the convent was run as a convalescent home and poor house.  Jesuits enlarged the Convent to its present size.
