Cathedral of Santiago

Bilbao's oldest building and a stop on the Camino de Santiago

Address Plaza de Santiago, Casco Viejo, Bilbao

The fourteenth-century Gothic cathedral at the heart of the Casco Viejo is Bilbao's oldest surviving building of note. The interior is relatively austere, in keeping with Basque religious tradition, but the cloister is a calm refuge from the busy streets outside. The cathedral is one of the stopping points on the northern Camino de Santiago route.
