History<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The origin of the province of Villa Clara dates back to the creation of the jurisdictions of Remedios, Trinidad, Sancti Sp\u00edritus, Santa Clara, Sagua la Grande and Cienfuegos in the mid-nineteenth century, which would lead to the territory where it now sits, mostly, to be known as Las Villas (With the foundation of Remedios, Trinidad and Sancti Sp\u00edritus first, as Las Tres Villas or Places; after the foundation of Santa Clara as Las Cuatro Villas; until it became Las Villas with the incorporation of Sagua la Grande and Cienfuegos later). On June 9, 1878, by Royal Decree of the Spanish Government, the Cuban territory would be divided into six provinces that would take the names of their leading cities, with which Las Villas would officially be named Santa Clara until the Constitution of 1940 in which it retakes what it traditionally had formed by six judicial parties: Trinidad, Sancti Sp\u00edritus, Remedios, Santa Clara, Sagua la Grande and Cienfuegos.<\/strong><\/p>\n
