    Preciosa, tanto por dentro como por fuera. Pocas veces valoramos lo que tenemos cerca de casa

    Neogothic cathedral with twin towers and a fine front facade that includes an effigy of San Francisco de Asis. The front isn't on Calle San Francisco but on the first street to your right as it meets Plaza Zabalburu. Inside to the left is a beautiful golden Chapel dedicated to El Salvador and the alter is also impressive.

    La iglesia de San Francisco de Asís, también conocido como la quinta parroquia, es un templo ecléctico-neogótico de finales del siglo XIX emplazado en la ciudad de Bilbao. Su fachada principal se sitúa en la calle Hurtado de Amézaga, muy cerca de la plaza Zabalburu. Wikipedia

    Es una perla en Bilbao, no es ostentosa pero su fachada impacta. Puedes llegar en tren estación de Zabalburu, en autobús 358 o caminando si estás en el centro.

    (Translated by Google) The fifth Parish. Monumental building made of sandstone, neo-Gothic style from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Work of the Bilbao architect Luis de Landecho. German stained glass with images of the life of Saint Francis of Assisi. The work on the towers of the façade were directed by the architect Manuel María de Smith. Sculptural image of San Francisco at the main entrance by Higinio Basterra. Inside, the church has 3 naves, the middle one being the highest. We find beautiful imagery of Christ and saints. Crypts of the Zabalburu and Mazarredo families. It is worth a visit. Located on Hurtado Amezaga street near Zabalburu square. (Original) La quinta Parroquia. Monumental edificio realizado en arenisca, de estilo neogótico de finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX. Obra del arquitecto bilbaíno Luis de Landecho. Vidrieras alemanas con imágenes de la vida de San Francisco de Asís. La obra de las torres de la fachada fueron dirigidas por el arquitecto Manuel María de Smith. Imagen escultórica de San Francisco en la entrada principal obra de Higinio Basterra. En su interior la iglesia es de 3 naves, siendo la del medio la más alta. Encontramos imaginería de Cristo y de santos de bella factura. Criptas de las familias Zabalburu y Mazarredo. Merece la pena realizar una visita. Situada en la calle Hurtado Amezaga cerca de la plaza Zabalburu.

  • 5/5 olibia b. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is very pretty even though I liked the altar better before, with a different color. There is the Nazareno, which leaves on Easter and to which many people come to see him in the procession. (Original) Es muy bonita a pesar que me gustaba más el altar antes, con otro color. Ahí está el Nazareno,el cual sale en semana Santa y al cual viene mucha gente fuera a verlo en la procesión.

👍👍 The Artxanda Viewpoint is a somewhat hidden gem in Bilbao that offers spectacular views of the city and its surrounding area. On a sunny day, it won't disappoint and is worth the trip! I would highly recommend checking it out. Enjoy yourself!! :)
