Discover Classic Canarian Architecture and beyond

From the moment you set foot on these islands, you can see the seamless blend of influences spanning centuries. Wandering through cobblestone streets lined with buildings that tell stories of hundred of years of trade, and cultural exchanges.

From the Casa del Corregidor in La Laguna, with its weathered façade having witnessed centuries of history. To the Casa Regental in Las Palmas, a testament to resilience and adaptation of the population around it.

The archipelago is famously religious and provides the perfect place to explore religious sanctuaries such as the Cathedral of Santa Ana, where Gothic arches meet Neoclassical grandeur, or the humble hermitage of San Telmo in Puerto de la Cruz, a sanctuary built by the hands of fishermen centuries ago. On Tenerife, explore the Iglesia de nuestra Senora de la concepcion, for a true look into a traditional Canarian church.

Discover the military history of the islands as you explore ancient fortifications like the Torre del Conde in La Gomera, standing proud against the backdrop of blue skies, or the imposing Castillo de La Luz in Las Palmas which has long protected the coastline of the area.

But the architecture of the Canary Islands doesn’t end with its historic treasures. The Islands are dotted with modern architectural wonders too, drawing inspiration from the natural beauty that surrounds them. Visit the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium in Las Palmas, a vibrant mecca of contemporary design nestled amidst volcanic rock, or marvel at the daring curves of the Auditorio de Tenerife Adán Martín, an elegant wonder of steel and glass.

Whether you’re a history buff, an architecture enthusiast, or simply a traveler in search of beauty and inspiration, the Canary Islands offer something to be enjoyed by all. Come, discover the architectural wonders that await you in this timeless corner of the world.
