Bilbao

The Iglesia de San Antón in Bilbao is one of the city's most iconic landmarks, located in the Old Quarter, near the San Antón Bridge. Its construction began in the 15th century in the Gothic style and was completed in the 16th century, though it has undergone some renovations over time. The church is notable for its impressive facade, featuring a large pointed arch doorway and its bell tower, which is one of the most characteristic elements of Bilbao's skyline. A significant feature of the Iglesia de San Antón is its location by the Nervión River, making it a symbol of the historical connection between Bilbao and the water. Throughout the centuries, it has been an important religious site and remains a key cultural and architectural reference in the city.
