by the 1950s, About 20,000 Jews Lived in Havana, Concentrated Around Calle Belén and Calle Acosta, Which Bustled with Kosher Bakeries, Cafés, and Clothes Stores. Jews Knew the Lessons of Nazi Germany and the Totalitarian Regimes of Eastern Europe and So, Following the Revolution, Became Part of the Cuban Diaspora. About 95 Percent of Them Fled.

although the Castro Government Discouraged Jews from Practicing Their Faith, Jewish Religious Schools Were the Only Parochial Schools Allowed to Remain Open After the Revolution. the Government Has Always Made Matzo Available and Even Authorized a Kosher Butcher Shop to Supply Meat for Observant Jews. a Renaissance in the Jewish Faith is Occurring. Synagogues have Been Refurbished and New Ones Opened, and the Faithful are Returning in Larger Numbers and Observing the Shabbath. this May have Been Encouraged By the Aid that Many of the Jewish Organizations Began Bringing to Support to the Community, Binding It Together.
