Hacienda Santa Ana

Driving down a non-descript road on the outskirts of Bayamon, one enters La Hacienda Santa Ana. In the 19th century Edmundo Fernandez founded a company that to this day produces rum. Several buildings dating back to the time sugar cane was grown in the property still stand, including this tower which was originally a windmill (now an office). Bayamon, PR

  • According to legend, British troops were besieging the city of San Juan on the night of April 30, 1797. The townswomen, led by a bishop, formed a prayer procession (rogativa) and marched throughout the streets of the city singing hymns and carrying torches while at the same time praying for the deliverance of the City. Outside the walls, the invaders mistook the torch-lit movement for the arrival of Spanish reinforcements. When morning came, they were gone from the island and the city was saved from a possible invasion. The statue was sculpted by Lindsay Daen. San Juan, PR<br /> <br /> PR-110805-0031
