Tour description
Get to know the most amazing legends of Bilbao by touring the capital of Biscay with this free tour. A route full of mystery and intrigue.
We will begin this free tour of mysteries and legends of Bilbao in front of the Arriaga Theater , the scene of a cruel murder still unsolved... Very close to this place we will contemplate the façade of the Cathedral of Santiago , whose exterior architecture will provide us with interesting clues about Basque mythology.
The next stop on this special tour of the capital of Biscay will take place at the Portal de Zamudio . Did you know that this crossroads is linked to none other than the witches of Bilbao? Just opposite is the Parroquia de los Santos Juanes , which guards the so-called “Miraculous Virgin”. If it weren't for her, the people of Bilbao would have suffered epidemics and other unpleasant torments...
We will continue the free tour of Bilbao next to the church of San Antón and the Mercado de la Ribera . If you still do not know the famous “Miracle of Atxuri”, this is a good place to reveal its curious history. Very close to this point is the Plaza de la Encarnación , where we will shudder remembering a turbulent event related to the most perverse and depraved side of the human being.
To get rid of the bad vibes of this last story, we will conclude the free tour at the Puente de la Merced . According to legend... Its sculptures bring good luck!
