The biggest pieces of rock were between 20 and 30 centimetres wide.
A loud explosion was heard in several localities in the western province of Pinar del Rio, said a member of the National Institute of Astronomy.
Many Cubans shared photos and videos of the meteorite on social media on Friday afternoon, soon after it fell at 2 p.m. local time.
The meteorite was spotted by US weather officials earlier on Friday flying over the Florida Keys.
