Sancti Spíritus is a city in the province of Sancti Spíritus, central Cuba, and is the provincial capital.
The city was founded by Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar. Two blocks south from the town's main square the Parroquial Mayor is located, a venerable green towered church whose early 16th-century origins make it the country's oldest. Nearby is the Museo de Arte Colonial (Colonial Art Museum).
