Massive marble statue of Jesus, completed in 1958, with city & water views from its hilltop plaza.
Absolutely a must see while visiting havana, it has breath taking views of the city.
Good view on Havana 👌
Located in Regla/Casablanca just a short ferry ride across the bay and a 10/15 minute hike up the hill youll find El Cristo de Habana and beautiful views of the city.
The Christ was ordered by Fulgencio Bautista who tried to appease the people by building a Christ similar to Cristo Redentor in Rio. Just two weeks after it was erected Castro sacked the city.
The statue actually looks better from old Havana. But it provides a great view point of the entire Havana.
Great look out into the city.
Just beautiful! Wonderful view on all Havana - you can go there by car, bus or ferry and you can combine it with visiting the house of Che Guevara and el Morro.
Status of Christ, could walk from ferry port of Casablanca about 10-15 minutes up hill.
Great statue and amazing views of Havana!
Beautiful views of the Old City from the highest point in Havana. The statue of Christ is carved from 67 individual blocks of Carrera marble from Italy. The Pope blessed each piece individually. It was damaged by a lightning strike during a recent hurricane and you will notice when you visit a large lightning rod near the statue to prevent future damage. Certainly one of the must see places in Havana!
This is worth visiting. Take the ferry and walk up to it. It’s awesome.
Great views of Havana from the top - must see. Residence of Che right across the hill.Unforgettable views!
Great place to see the sunset with view over Havana. A bit unlucky with the wheater, but recomended.
Beautiful views matched with a great bit of history
A wonderful sight to see, with an amazing view. No charge to visit! Everyone should to stop here and visit.
This Christ statute is located across the Habana harbour overlooking the Malecon and views of historic Habana (the Vieja area). It is also adjacent to the fortress that also overlooks the Habana harbour. As a tourist, there are two ways to get there: by bus through a tunnel under the harbour (this is not very interesting); or catch a ferry along the Malecon near the Rum Museum for the Casa Blanca destination across the harbour. This ferry ride is about 20 minutes and gives good view along the harbour. On arrival walk on the only road up the hill until you see the Christ statute. The fortress is adjacent and nearby. The ferry cost was CUC0.50 return per person June 2019. Give yourself 1/2 to 3/4 day to see these sights walking leisurely. There is a drink stop half way up the road if it is a hot day and you didnt bring water.
The statue above of Havana. We took a taxi, pass the tunnel, went to the Cristo and also witness the wonderful view as you can see!
If you can survive the heat and the walk from the ferry, it offers a really beautiful view of Havana. Although not that well known, definitely worth if for the view.
A 10 minute ferry ride will get you over the the island where the Christ of Havana is overlooking the city! You will need to climb a few hundred steps to get to the top of the hill but you will be rewarded with panorama of the city! I suggest coming here for sunsets as it is beautiful, a different perspective than watching it from El Malecon!
Beautiful, Amazing and Breathtaking.... Everyone must see!!
Beautiful view of Havana. A historical place. Very quiet environment. Beautiful sunsets are seen from these place. Its an amazing experience to claim the stairs after the Casablanca yacht takes you there.
Awesome statue and wonderful views. Great history.Rather dirty park overall.
View of Havana Viejo from the other side. Perfect spot to watch the sunset. Quiet and away from the hustle of the city.
This is a beautiful piece of art next to the military fortress and Ches house. The view of Habana from this location is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! If you visit cuba, you must go see The Cristo of Habana!
A great tourist spot in Havana to learn about the deep history of this nation, and how this statue was a gift and became the symbol it is today. Also, adjacent to the statue is the house Che Guevara lived in for 6 years while in Cuba.
This was a very great place to visit. It was very clean not overcrowded. Had a great view of the city.
Beautiful views of the city! Easy to access and free.
Two different ways to go up, through steep stairs on the right or around through the street on the left which is longer but easier.
View of Havana from here possibly the best! Strongly recommend visiting the Christ of Havana statue.
You can actually see it from many points of the city. You can also see the panoramic at the site.Instead of taking taxi from old Havana, we took the ferry with the locals (only standing no seatand it cost only CUC1 for 2 people.We walked up from the pier and it took us around 25 mins. The area Casablanca is very different from old Havana.
Beautifu. aweinspiring, majestic, eyecatching, hairraising, spinechilling, goosebumps inducing.
Amazing view. Very nice art work.park was well maintained. Not a lot of people there when we were there. Our tour guide through Royal Caribbean very informative.
The Cuban people are beautiful and they & their country have so much potential!
Beautiful statue, would highly recommend to visit whilst in Havana. We tried to find the "eiffel tower" of Havana and think the Christ of Havana should definitely be that icon for this beautiful city. Great view of port and city. The drive to get to statue is interesting and you get to see more of the "country" side which was pretty. Bonus Che Guevaras home is right across the street. It was made into a museum and for 6CUCs you can go in and explore. Unfortunately we did not have enough time to do that on our tour.
Beautiful what they have done but the view looking at the city is another story
While it is a nice statue, it is a 5 minute pit stop at best. There is limited history behind this statue and it was worth more to take photos overlooking Havana and the harbor than to see the stone figure. There were better things to see right down the road like morro and the military exhibition.
Best view in Havana and beautiful art work.
Massive statue of Christ with excellent views
It is a beauty and the view of the city is awesome from here
Lot to see here. Beautiful statue, great views of Havana and Ches house next door. There were vendors selling cold coconuts. A few kids begging, which is very common in Cuba.
Beautiful statue, even for the non-religious. Great view of Habana. Could use some cleaning and maintenence, there was alot of debris in the foliage nearby. Very accessible and close to the Castillo.
A must go places in Havana, overlooking the beautiful port bay & old Havana, and it is free too.
Beautiful views of the Havana as the Chrust overlooks the citu and guards over the bay! The local folklore goes that the right hand is for holding a cigar and the left one a mojito.
You wanted a huge statue of Christ, you got it! Great views of Habana Vieja and a ten minute walk to Castillo De Los Tres Reyes Del Morro. Save yourself a few CUCs and take the ferry to Casablanca and walk from there.
Christ of Havana is a beautiful and massive statue! It is just glorious and spectacular the see with the gorgous city view around it. A must see! The view of havana is amazing up here. Also the guy who takes photos of you is excellent! Be sure to tip him, he has great photography skills!
panoramic view of the city. nice place if you want to do some photos.
Although the Cristo isnt very impressive if youve seen other versions of it around the world (Brazil, Mexico, etc), you should be here for the view of Havana and nothing else.
Must see attraction in Havana. Not much to do there but interesting history and you can take creative photos of statue in background.Also beautiful view of Havana below.
I loved my Havana tour that took us here, 50 foot jesus is a must see when visiting Havana.
Great view cant wait to go back !!
