Things to do Bilbao: Glory, Tragedy & Rebirth Tour of the Historic Center

A stroll through the historic center: a two-hour journey back in time! Starting point: Arriaga Theater. On this walking tour of Bilbao’s historic center, you’ll stroll through streets steeped in history, charming squares, centuries-old churches, and iconic landmarks that shaped the city’s transformation. Relive Bilbao’s glorious and turbulent past, from the Napoleonic Wars to the Carlist Wars. Get to know and understand this city that once flourished and then fell into decline. Be moved by the impact of the 1983 flood, which destroyed much of the city and marked a turning point in its history. Be amazed by the urban revitalization that has turned Bilbao into a global leader in architecture, culture, and quality of life. Throughout the tour, we’ll visit Plaza Nueva, the Calzadas de Mallona, the Cathedral of Santiago, the Market, the Camino de Santiago, and historic houses. You’ll learn about the incredible lineup of notable figures who rose to worldwide fame from Bilbao, the San Antón Bridge, and other hidden treasures along the banks of the Ría. A city with a strong soul, a living memory, and a future being built on every corner.
