The Basílica Menor de San Francisco de Asís is a Catholic minor basilica and former Franciscan convent in Old Havana, Cuba, built in the Baroque style. Construction began in 1548, and after storm and hurricane damage it was reworked in structural reforms from 1731 to 1738. In 1842 the building became the General Post Office and headquarters of the Post Office of Cuba.
