Truely terrific place. A combination of a chruch and city walls on an uneven ground. This lead to constructual problems that have been bugged the building for ages. And then in the sixthees a desasterous decision to remove internal buttresses. in english a very good guide through the building, from underground to the tower with views over the country side. You have to make a reservation through Internet or in person. In the end they show the true colours of the building, from now to the 16th century Closed between 1400 and 16.30m Worth the trip

We had a tour in Spanish, but with audioguide in English. We never had such a great, complete experience from enormous foundations to the roof, and everything in between. The restoration is well done. Tour guide was friendly and helpful. The Cathedral is not so over-decorated as many others in Spain, but very interesting non the less. Highly recommend tour!

The building was closed for renovation when we visited. Beautiful architecture in a very friendly town.

As the Cathedral is still in a period of extended restoration you have to visit with a guided tour, so the entrance fee will set you back around ten euros, unless you qualify for a concession. However the tour is detailed and exhaustive, including a trip down through its crumbling foundation pillars, then into its spectacular romanesque interior before going up to the Tower. The journey there, along a narrow ledge that overlooks the cathedral interior, before acsending up a spiral staircase, is almost as exciting as the views it offers of the surrounding city.

It is certainly not the prettiest or the mos architecturally inspiring cathedral in Spain. However, it has an interesting story of trying to withstand the original construction errors. Fortunately, the cathedral has been saved from an imminent collapse after the last restoration. The guided visit is super interesting, as it takes you to places that are usually not accessible to the public, including the foundations.

A must visit in Vitoria-Gasteiz! Guided tours are very good...best option is: Cathedrale Tour + Tower! View from there above the city is awesome! They have guided tours in English...but also audioguides in different languages! This is a sure must visit if you are in town. Check out the tours on their official site! Never had a guided tour like this...for that price...anyway in this world! The Tour ends with projection show of how the coloring of the church was ages ago...never saw something like this before...even in Rome or somewhere else! So much love and affection to history combined with modern technology!

The work done of restoration of this Cathedral is amazing. It seems that construction was not very well done, and during the time the attempts to repair it were not very successfully also. From a few year now, was done a huge work to understand was was wrong and what exactly had to be done to save the building.

Such a lovely park to visit . There are plenty of benches dotted along the pathways of this lovely well maintained park , I was and am especially impressed that the grass is not over cut allowing daisy’s and buttercups etc to flourish and they look so pretty . There are cafes in the park along with an ice cream van , there is a lovely bandstand close to the cafes . This is a lovely place to chill and so close to the town , practically in it .

a little small but nice to chill if need be. pity streets on either side are kinda noisy

Beautiful park with lots of shade from trees. Colourful flower beds and cafes. Right beside the cathedral. There's also a toilet.

Nice small park with Footsal/ Basketball court. Has lots of benches to sit on, playground. Good for picnics, dogs, kids, or casual chill

Lovely spot, cool in the summer doggy friendly, wheel chair friendly. Two nice bars where in the summer are in the shade to enjoy the life go by

Gorgeous park and creepy cathedral. What else can you ask.

Lovely park to chill or have picnic in heart of city

It is amazing 🤩🤩 place 😀

We walk it regularly. It's a great place for a country stroll within easy reach of the town. You can walk the distance you want and find public transport back to the centre.

Vitoria is a beautiful small city with lots of parks and green areas. This is one of these beautiful places and worth the visit especially with small children.

Really nice park where you can run, walk, bike... or just take pictures of the ducks!

Great place to relax and recharge

Love the city green ring

No humans

Although they don't seem to be to be accessable to view except on the western side where you can go out of the old center under an excellent gate with portcullis then take a left and skirt them on the outside for a few hundred metres on the walkway provided. Looking at them you can kind of imagine what it would have been like to live when an enemy closed in on the city and everyone would have to retreat inside!!

(Translated by Google) Gasteiz city wall partially renovated, but maintains the charm of the old buildings, it is a must-visit place, since it is part of the city's history, passing through the old gate makes you feel like you are in the Middle Ages! (Original) Muralla de la ciudad de Gasteiz parcialmente reformada, pero mantiene el encanto de las antiguas construcciones,es un lugar obligado de visitar,ya que es parte de la historia de la ciudad,pasar por la puerta antigua te hace sentir como en el medievo!

Nice and clean with great history

(Translated by Google) They are very pretty, very Arab. You can take photos. They are in the historic center, a stone's throw from the Santa María Cathedral. (Original) Son muy bonitas, muy árabes. Te puedes hacer fotos. Están en el casco histórico a un paso de la catedral de santa maría

(Translated by Google) Another of the places that we have visited these days has been Vitoria-Gazteiz to be able to see this fantastic city in Euskadi Álava, which we thought was fantastic, we have been seeing the Plaza de la Virgen Blanca, ideal to taste its good pincho bars and its gastronomy, the Artium a museum of contemporary art, the Florida Park or Florida Park is the emblematic park of the city built in 1820, the Cathedral of Santa María de la Victoria, the Salburua Park which is a green lung of Vitoria, the old Gothic-style cathedral, is truly a charming city with a lot of character, it has great cuisine to enjoy for a few days and see everything it has to offer. (Original) Otro de los lugares que hemos visitado en estos días a sido Vitoria-Gazteiz para poder ver esta fantástica ciudad de Euskadi Álava, que nos ha parecido fantástica, hemos estado viendo la plaza de la virgen blanca ideal para degustar sus buenos bares de pinchos y su gastronomía , el Artium un museo de arte contemporáneo, el florida park o parque de la Florida es el parque emblemático de la ciudad construido en el año 1820, la catedral de Santa María de la victoria, el parque de Salburua que es un pulmón verde de Vitoria, la catedral vella de estilo gótico, la verdad una ciudad con encanto y con mucho carácter, tiene una gran gastronomía para disfrutar unos días y ver todo lo que te ofrece.

(Translated by Google) Arch of the medieval wall of Vitoria. From here, we can access the area with walkways and walk along the wall, learning about the scope and details of the reconstruction through information panels. (Original) Arco de la muralla medieval de Vitoria, desde aquí podemos acceder a la zona con pasarelas y recorrer la muralla y conocer mediante a paneles informativos el alcance y detalle de la reconstrucción.

(Translated by Google) The wall is in very good condition. It can be seen at various points and different parts of the wall. There is a brief explanation in the cooler area. (Original) Muralla en muy buen estado de conservación. Se puede ver en distintos puntos y diferentes partes de ésta. Hay alguna pequeña explicación en la zona de la fresquera.

Interesting and unusual, if not unique. Wide range of playing cards from around the world, well displayed. Date from 1420 onwards. Free entry. Well worth a visit. Archaeology museum adjacent.

This museum really exceeded my expectations. I went in thinking, 'How interesting can playing cards really be?', but boy was I wrong. It's an art form! They have some really gorgeous pieces and with lots of history too; some pieces go back to the 1600s. So many different styles and themes. It was really good especially for a free museum.

Great place if you are into museums and learning. You'll get to see very beautiful and interesting decks of cards from very ancient times. Everything from the begging is well explained for you to go at your own pace. Plus, you'll learn about the city's history. Follow 4 more interesting places IG @thaziatapia

Interesting museum for a short visit. Cards exhibition is unique. Free entry.

What a nice little museum to explore. Friendly personal and great WiFi made for a nice stay.

This playing card museum is attached to the archeology museum. A small museum in a lovely restored building. It would have been a much nicer experience if explanations where in English and if they would actually sell some cards. The museum is free of charge.

Such a great museum! Very unusual and unique theme. And it's free entrance!

Large but reasonably new by Spanish standards cathedral which is reasonably impressive. It also had a reasonably large and impressive religious art exhibition that would have been quite expensive in other cities. It was free to enter but note that it's often closed between 2-4pm

Very airy and lofty Cathedral, the stained glass windows and architecture are the highlite here. Also take notice of the stone sculptures both inside and out which are exceptional.

Beautiful, peaceful, and welcoming cathedral in Vitoria Gasteiz! Lots of love for this cathedral.

Very good tour full of interesting facts. The reception made special effort to get us in as their was no tour at the time we arrived. think of looking up the tour times for non spanish speaker as it's the only way to get in while the building is being renovated.

Even if not so old as the other cathedral in the city, it's quite the piece of architecture. Beautiful and impressive, the ambulatory is astonishing. Entrance is free, so it's really a must see!

excellent large museum right in the main nave of the church next to the alter

Tickets are not needed in advance. It is a beautiful cathedral and worth visiting.

The entrance was free, and the lady at the reception was very kind. We had visited this museum a year ago, and we really enjoyed the exhibitions back then. However, today we didn’t particularly like the four different exhibitions on display. This place has a lot of potential to host great works and showcase new artists. The fact that entry is free in the afternoons and on Sundays is fantastic, as it allows access to culture for those who may not have much money. I still recommend this museum because it’s likely you’ll find exhibitions that suit your taste in the future. Just make sure to check the current exhibitions before visiting.

Beyond the city's free museums, this contemporary art space provides an enjoyable atmosphere for relaxation and reflection. Its expansive exhibits make it a fair choice for families or those seeking a peaceful cultural experience.

I really enjoyed this museum, especially as entrance is free/donation. Just wish it had the works by Picasso, Dali, or Miro that I had read about

Loved the exhibitions they have here. The entrance is free on certain days and evenings but you can choose to make a donation.

Very nice small museum with a great display of regional artists.

Slightly oddball museum which costs 5 Euro to enter note that the building is mainly underground so is larger than it first appears

Very nice collection of modern art. The little quiz you can do is very entertaining and makes for an enjoyable experience! Loved it.

If you're visiting Vitoria then this street is one of the must visits. Here you will find artworks by Basque Artists on public display! Shops and bars. It's a safe street for parents with young children.

One of the many spots you'll want to check

Nice place and well to peatonal zone

Original

Excellent great night

Cool!

Be

It was interesting to learn about this basilica on the website provided by the entrance of the building. What it doesn't explain though is the damage against one of the walls, which was a result of a firing squad during the Civil War. Check it out.

A very interesting church in a beautiful setting. A lot of history.

Beautiful church!

(Translated by Google) Wonderful temple that yesterday afternoon had the privilege of celebrating its mass at 7pm with the Amalur Choir and subsequent concert with impressive pieces. Congratulations to the choir and especially to its director and friend Maite Gómez, for her good work and those hands that carry this magnificent choir.

(Translated by Google) I visited it on the day of the San Prudencio Pilgrimage. Unbeknownst to me, I saw large crowds heading in the same direction. They explained what was happening to me, and I accompanied them on the ascent to the green meadow where the Basilica is located. It's comforting to see a large number of people, groups, or families, spending the day there. Another thing I loved was seeing how perfectly clean everything was, with not a single piece of paper or plastic rolling around due to the pilgrimage. I was able to walk around the Basilica building, but it was impossible to enter due to the crowds trying to get inside. I have one more visit, without the pilgrimage, to see the inside. (Original) Lo visité en el día de la Romería de San Prudencio. Sin saberlo, vi a grandes multitudes en la misma dirección. Me explicaron lo que ocurría y los acompañé en el ascenso hasta la verde pradera donde se ubica la Basílica. Es reconfortante ver a un gran numero de personas, cuadrillas o familias, pasando el día allí. Otra cosa que me encantó fue ver que todo estaba perfectamente limpio, ni un mal papel o plástico rodaba por la extensión de la romería. Pude rodear el edificio de la Basílica, pero fue imposible adentrarme, debido a la muchedumbre que quería acceder al interior del templo. Me queda una visita, sin romeria, para visitarlo por dentro

Friendly reception. Free entry. Some gorgeous works and a beautiful house. Quiet enough too. I loved this visit.

Free entry! A rarity these days. I fine collection of works by local artists in an elegant mansion. When visited there were few others viewing. Worth a visit if in the area.

Lovely museum where you can find the pieces of Basque art. Free entry.

Beautiful Palace and garden. Interesting exhibition of Basque paintings. Free entry, don't miss it.

Nice little museum with a lot to offer for free. QR codes are also available at some of the paintings which offer explanations in 4 languages.

Very nice place, with good exhibitions from Spanish painters.

Great museum built around and part of a historic mansion which is worth seing by itself. Some amazing oil paintings with a Basque theme in the main. Set in pretty formal gardens and it's free to visit.

This is a free-access place during opening hours. It’s small but free to visit. The facade of the building is very beautiful. I recommend stopping by if you’re walking in the area.

Spectacular vaulted room but a pity that the information downstairs in only in Spanish and Basque

The main party street!

super

(Translated by Google) Historic building in the center of Vitoria, free to visit. The visitable area is small but beautiful, it is well worth entering if you are in the city!

(Translated by Google) Free and open access without the need for an appointment. The main attraction is the star vault of the central room, polychrome and with decorated knots, very beautiful, at the main entrance there is a well and on the lower floor (-1) a permanent exhibition with characteristic Basque furniture and a room with exhibitions temporary ones (the one that currently exists of modern art is quite extravagant for my taste) The upper floors have closed access (offices) (Original) Acceso libre y gratuito sin necesidad de cita previa.

(Translated by Google) Located on Cuchillería Street in Vitoria. Just a few meters from the Heraclio Founier Playing Card Museum. Free admission. Closes at 2:00 PM. After visiting the Lantern Museum (a beautiful place, highly recommended) and the Playing Card Museum, we hurriedly visited the Casa del Cordón because time was short and they closed at 2:00 PM. The most important thing about the visit is that we accomplished our objective. (Original) Ubicado en la calle Cuchillería de Vitoria. A pocos metros del Museo de Naipes, Heraclio Founier. Entradas gratuita. Cierra a las 14 h. Después de visitar el Museo de los Faroles, (una preciosidad, recomendable) y el Museo de Naipes, visitamos la Casa del Cordón de prisa, porque el tiempo apremiaba y cerraban a las 14 h, pero lo importante de la visita es que el objetivo fue cumplido

The door is left open in the evening for you to come in and stroll around. It's spacious like a basilica with huge columns, and has a fine altar as well as a number of exquisite chapels.

Very beautiful church in the middle of the city. The retable of the church is baroque altarpiece by Gregorio Fernandez. At the moment restoration is goin on.

Beautiful church in the city center of Vitoria. Really worth the visit. There is a tour train in the summer months there. Really fun activity for children.

Very nice church. Free entrance with free guided tour. We had a very helpful and friendly English speaking guide.

Walked along the church through the old town. Don't know how it looks inside.

It's okay

Beautiful

(Translated by Google) In 2007, two artists transformed the anonymous wall of a building into a large and colorful painting entitled Al hilo del tiempo which reproduces fabrics. From here other artists use the bare walls of the city and create these beautiful murals. This mural is located just below the Catedral de Santa Maria in the old city. (Original) Nel 2007 due artiste hanno trasformato l'anonimo muro di un edificio in un grande e colorato dipinto intitolato appunto Al hilo del tiempo che riproduce stoffe. Da qui altri artisti utilizzano i muri spogli della città e creano questi bei murales. Questo murale si trova appena sotto la Catedral de Santa Maria, nella città vecchia.

(Translated by Google) Not very noteworthy (Original) Poco reseñable

The little boy in me loves this free to enter museum. Kept Casta out of the bar. Full of weapons and dioramas.

A small museum as museums go but interesting displays. You can use QR codes to get commentary in English.

It is small but has many exponents. Plus it was free and the lady there took the time to explain some of the things.

My favourite museum in Vitoria. It has a collection of old weapons and medieval armours: all in good state and beautifully arranged for display. The entry is free.

Very interesting museum, free entry. Very helpful custodian who have us a brief explanation of how the museum is set up. Well worth a visit.

We enjoyed this small armor museum. Lots to see. All info is displayed in Spanish/Basque however through the QR codes next to the display you can listen to an English audio guide. So bring your headset!

Nice small museum with different arms and such to view. Note that it is free to enter and is located directly opposite the fine art museum which is also free. It's also in a reasonably leafy and photogenic area.

An incredible display of first and second millennial sacred art and artifacts. Very much worth our time. Free!

Bellisimo

Amazing architecture, stunning..well worth a visit.
