    (Translated by Google) Artenara is an ideal place to appreciate the archaeological sites that show the way of life of the ancient Canarian settlers. The Acusa Archaeological Complex (cave houses) declared a Site of Cultural Interest and accessed by car. But also the visit to the Hermitage of the Virgin of La Cuevita is another of the traditional routes, since this hermitage is excavated in a cliff, 400 meters from the town center. And logically our visit to Artenara should include visiting the Church of San Matías, from the 19th century, which is the place where the current Artenara Parish is located.

Y lógicamente nuestra visita Artenara debe incluir conocer la Iglesia de San Matías, del siglo XIX, que es el lugar en el que se halla la actual Parroquia de Artenara.

    Iglesia de San Matías (Saint Mathew´s Church) was erected A.D 1870 on the main square called Plaza San Matias. Pueblo Artenara is not a big city, but the church's dimensions are impressive. Beautiful architecture. Two high towers. Separate belfry tower and separate clock tower. It's a rarity due to the general cost of the church building in 1870. The Church owes its interior charm to the famous Gran Canaria artist painter señor José Arencibia Gil (1914-1968). In January 2015, inside the Church, beautiful and large windows stained-glass piqued my interest. I recommend a glimpse inside.

    Eine top Kirche, in die es mich immer wieder zieht. Diesmal war die Maria aus der Bergkapelle in der Kirche aufgestellt und es lief das Ave Maria. Die Wandmalerei, die Decke alles ein Hingucker und vor allem findet man hier Ruhe. Ein Ort zum nachdenken

    Edificación sobria por fuera que esconde una verdadera maravilla en su interior. Destacados su techo de pino canario y sus pinturas. Imprescindible
