Punta Brava is a town in the Municipio of Bauta in the province of Havana, Cuba. |
This town was founded in 1870. During the Cuban Independence Wars, the city of Bauta was burned down and the seat of the Municipio had to be transferred to Punta Brava. After the Republic was established, in 1902, the seat was taken back to Bauta. Still Punta Brava remains as one of the most active and important urban centers in the Municipio. |
