The civil governor of Havana, inspired by the success of a charitable work carried out in mid 1883 by the large Asturian colony that lived and worked in Havana, promoted the celebration of another similar event under the name of "Gran Romería de San Cristóbal" in favour of the "Real Casa de Beneficencia y Maternidad de La Habana" (The Royal House of Charity and Maternity of Havana), on the 24th, 25th and 26th of November 1883.
