Join Cintli Latin Folklore to celebrate 169 years of Independence for the Dominican Republic. Three brave men led a movement called “La Trinitaria” which led the rebellion on Feb. 27, 1844. The official declaration of the Dominican War of Independence was by the shot of a cannon at the “Puerta del Conde” And at that spot, the Dominican flag was raised for the first time and where the Haitian forces were confronted, finally setting the Dominicans free of foreign rule!
