Scientist and geographer Alexander von Humboldt arrived and stayed in Trinidad March 1801. He was making his Latin American expedition.
Von Humboldt befriended Cuban landowner and thinker Francisco Arrango y Parreño; together they visited the Valley of the Sugar Mills in Trinidad. Togther with the Guines area in south Havana, the valleys of Matanzas Province, those three areas were, at the time, the first frontier of sugar production in the island.
During his trip to Trinidad , Humboldt collected statistical information on Cuba's population, production, technology and trade, and with Arrango, made suggestions for enhancing them.
Trinidad is Patrimonio de la Humanidad of UNESCO.
