Finca Vigia: Ernest Hemingway's Cuban Home
This ten-minute slideshow is a comprehensive look at Ernest Hemingway's Cuban home, Finca Vigia ("Lookout Farm"), which is located in San Francesco de Cuba, south-east of Havana. Hemingway lived there from 1939-1960: first with Martha Gellhorn, and then with Mary Welsh Hemingway.
This slideshow combines my own colour photographs of Finca Vigia (taken during visits there in 2010, 2014, and 2016) with selected black-and-white photos of Hemingway and family shot during the '40s and '50s.

Inside Finca Vigía - Ernest Hemingway Museo in Cuba | TRAVEL JOANS
My visit to Ernest Hemingway's former home in Cuba (now a museum), was not only interesting but educational. In 1940 Hemingway, with his new wife Martha, purchased a home outside Havana, Cuba. He would live there for the next twenty years. The Hemingways named the site Finca Vigia, or “lookout farm.” The Hemingway's shared their home with dozens of cats, as well as trophies from many successful hunts and fishing expeditions. The home was modestly decorated, comfortable and quite spacious. The outdoor Tower, was an additional work space for Hemingway, where he would write and type on an old Corona typewriter. He also enjoyed looking out over the lush green vegetation with beautiful views of the grounds and the city of Havana. There was a pet cemetery, a drained swimming pool, a veranda, and his prized fishing boat named PILAR.
A must-see attraction if visiting Cuba!

Finca Vigía was the home of Ernest Hemingway in San Francisco de Paula Ward in Havana,.#hemingway
#cubahavana #hemingway
Finca Vigía was the home of Ernest Hemingway in San Francisco de Paula Ward in Havana, Cuba. ... Hemingway lived in the house from mid 1939 to 1960,
Ten miles east of Havana is Hemingway's Cuba house - Finca Vigia, meaning lookout house.
Finca Vigia is located in the small, working-class town of San Francisco de Paula. The Cuban people have always respected famous writer's choice to live in a modest town, amongst the people he fished with.
Built in 1886 by a Spanish Architect Miguel Pascual y Baguer, Finca Vigia was purchased by Hemingway in 1940 for a cost of $12,500.
There, Hemingway wrote two of his most celebrated novels: For Whom the Bell Tolls and The Old Man and the Sea. A Movable Feast was written there as well.
After Hemingway's death in 1961, the Cuban government took ownership of the property - either with or without the approval of Mary Hemingway.
After years of neglect, restoration and preservation work has begun.
Finca Vigía has made both the World Monuments Fund list of 100 Most Endangered sites, and The National Trust for Historic Preservation’s 11 Most Endangered Places.
The Hemingway House in Cuba is located in a small, modest suburb of Havana named San Francisco de Paula - approximately 9 miles from the capital city.
Finca Vigia and the Hemingway Museum are located in the town of San Francisco de Paula. Follow Carretera Central from Havana for 9 miles.
HEMINGWAY IN CUBA: Inside The Finca Vigia, and A Walk Around The Pilar 2013
A brief slide-show tour of most of the rooms of Ernest Hemingway's Cuban estate, La Finca Vigia, or Lookout Farm, and a dry-land, closeup look at Hemingway's ketch, The Pilar.
I had the opportunity to see La Finca in 2013 and was glad to be able to square the actual physical location with my imagined impressions from Hemingway's descriptions in journalism, correspondence and fiction. He wrote The Old Man and The Sea here, standing at the typewriter on the bookshelf of the spare bedroom. Apparently, he rarely visited the writing tower that is separate from the house except to write correspondence. Mary Hemingway, a keen amateur Astronomer, kept her telescope there and enjoyed the room for that purpose.
The home has been left, it has been said, as though its owner has just stepped out to buy a carton of milk at the corner store. In fact, Hemingway and his wife Mary did leave in a hurry under pressure from the US consulate as a result of the revolution. Hemingway had planned to return to the Finca and left many personal belongings in place which gives this museum such a interesting view into the life of the writer in that period. For fans of Cuba, 20th Century American Literature and Hemingway in particular, La Finca is a fascinating excursion when in Havana. Highly recommended.

Finca La Vigía (casa de Hemingway)
La Finca La Vigía fue la residencia de Ernest Hemingway en San Francisco de Paula, en La Habana, Cuba, posteriormente declarada museo. Fue construida en 1886 por el arquitecto catalán Miguel Pascual y Baguer en una colina a quince millas al este de La Habana, contemplándose desde la terraza trasera y la torre adyacente una excelente vista del centro de la capital cubana.
Hemingway vivió en la casa desde mediados de 1939 hasta 1960, al principio de alquilar, hasta que la compró en diciembre de 1940, tras casarse con su tercera esposa, Martha Gellhorn. Hemingway pagó 12,500 dólares por una propiedad de 15 acres y una granja. Esta fue encontrada por Gellhorn, amigo de Hemingway que había venido a Cuba para estar con él y que no quería vivir en la pequeña habitación del Hotel Ambos Mundos. Fue en Finca Vigía que escribió Por quién doblan las campanas (una novela de la Guerra Civil Española) que Hemingway había cubierto como periodista con Gellhorn a finales de la década de 1930: la novela se inició en Ambos Mundos, y parte también se escribió en Idaho). Hemingway luego compraría la propiedad con algunas de las primeras regalías del libro, publicado en 1940.
A principios de la década de 1940, durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, los tres hijos de Hemingway lo visitaban a menudo en la Finca, a veces quedándose en una pequeña casa que Martha (Marty) había arreglado con Hemingway para ellos.
Tras divorciarse Hemingway de Gellhorn 1945, Hemingway se quedo con la Finca y vivió allí durante los inviernos con su última esposa, Mary Welsh Hemingway.
En la Finca, Hemingway escribió El viejo y el mar, (1951) tratando de un pescador que vivía en el pueblo cercano de Cojimar y trabajó en las aguas de La Habana.
Después de que la revolución cubana derrocará al gobierno respaldado por Estados Unidos en enero de 1959, Hemingway mantuvo buenas relaciones con el nuevo gobierno cubano, e incluso oficialmente presentó el trofeo de pesca deportiva Hemingway en La Habana durante el verano de 1960 para Fidel Castro.
Sin embargo, cuando la depresión y la enfermedad lo alcanzaron, Hemingway salió definitivamente de Cuba el 25 de julio de 1960, dejando atrás el hogar cubano en el que había vivido durante más de 20 años.
En el otoño de 1960, el gobierno cubano expropió una gran cantidad de propiedades extranjeras, incluida la casa de Hemingway y la Finca El Vigía, rompiendo el gobierno de los EE UU las relaciones diplomáticas con Cuba en octubre de 1960. Después de la invasión de la Bahía de Cochinos en abril de 1961 y el anuncio de que Cuba es un estado comunista en mayo, las relaciones entre Cuba y los EE UU se fueron a pique.
Por aquel entonces, Hemingway estaba siendo tratado por depresión severa en los Estados Unidos en la primera mitad de 1961, y los Hemingway no podían regresar a Cuba debido al clima político hostil entre los dos países. Hemingway se suicidó en su casa de Idaho el 2 de julio de 1961.
La vivienda, en peligro según el National Trust for Historic Preservation de Estados Unidos, fue restaurada por el gobierno cubano y reabierta en 2007, aunque sigue incluida como uno de los 11 sitios históricos en peligro de destrucción, a pesar de estar fuera de los EE UU. Está además en la lista bienal del World Monuments Fund de los 100 sitios más amenazados.
Existen importantes disputas y controversias sobre la condición de la casa y sus contenidos, aunque los investigadores que la han visitado regresan con afirmaciones consistentes de que pertenece al gobierno cubano, que ha mantenido responsablemente la casa, sus contenidos, incluido un barco de pesca de madera llamado Pilar , y sus terrenos desde la Revolución, mientras que los EE UU carecen de pruebas.

Finca La Vigia was het huis van Hemingway in het dorpje San Francisco de Paula ongeveer 12 km van Havana Cuba en is nu een museum. Het huis is gebouwd in 1886 op een heuvel bij Havana en ontworpen door Miguel Pascual y Baguer. Het huis zelf is niet toegankelijk. Door de geopende ramen kun je echter alles goed bekijken in deze gelijkvloerse woning zoals je ook in mijn filmpje kunt zien. Hemingway woonde in het huis van midden 1939-1960, en huurde het in het begin. In december 1940 heeft hij het huis gekocht voor $12.500 nadat hij was getrouwd met zijn derde vrouw Martha Gellhorn. Ze was voor Hemingway naar Cuba gekomen, maar besloot dat ze niet wilde leven in de kleine kamer die hij huurde bij het Hotel Ambos Mundos. De Finca bestond op dat moment uit 15 hectare (61.000 m2) met een boerderij. Het was op Finca Vigia dat hij een groot deel schreef van Voor wie de klok luidt (een roman van de Spaanse Burgeroorlog. De roman werd gestart in Hotel Ambos Mundos. Nadat Hemingway en Gellhorn waren gescheiden in 1945, behield Hemingway Finca Vigia en leefde er tijdens de winter met zijn laatste vrouw, Mary Welsh Hemingway. Op de Finca schreef Hemingway ook De oude man en de zee(geschreven in 1951) over een Cubaanse visser. Ernest Hemingway fokte katten. Tijdens de vroege jaren 1940, tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog, bezochten Hemingway's drie zonenhem vaak op de Finca. Soms in een klein huis dat Martha (Marty) Hemingway had opgeknapt voor hen. Zij meldden dat het pand toen was begroeid met manigua en Flamboyan bomen.In deze eerste dagen was er ook een tennisbaan, een zwembad en waterputten. In de tuin stond een toren die Hemingway voor zijn vijftig katten had laten bouwen en waar hij op de bovenste verdieping een bureau had staan. Het was voor hem de ideale plek om rustig te kunnen schrijven en hij had er een prachtig uitzicht op Havana. Ernest Hemingway fokte katten en vlak bij het zwembad liggen vier van Hemingway`s katten begraven. Zijn jacht Pilar is helemaal van mahonie- en eikenhout gemaakt en ligt in de tuin onder een afdak waar eens zijn tennisbaan was
