leader of the M-26-7 Movement in the district of Manzanillo. In
remembrance of Celia Sanchez a monument has been erected in Manzanillo.
The monument consists of stairs crossing two streets, culminating in a
flowered wall with the portrait of Celia Sanchez, surrounded by peace loving
white pigeons and sunflowers (probably her favorite flowers).
Along Martires de Vietnam Street at the intersection with San Silvestre
and Caridad Street.
The front and backside of the monument.
The walls of the houses along the stairs to the monument have been
decorated with flowers and pigeons.
