Teguise
Teguise, the old capital of the island of Lanzarote, is located in the northern central part of Lanzarote, around 10 km from the central area and 220 m above sea level. It was also the old capital of Lanzarote so is one of the most historically cultural towns on the island.
WHAT TO SEE IN TEGUISE
Timple House-Museum: This is a space dedicated to the figures of the Canary Islands’ cultural and musical heritage: the Timple. It is also a place of study and of cultural awareness of the Canary Islands’ traditions.
Museo de la Piratería (Museum of Piracy): This is located in the Santa Bárbara Castle, a building which dates back to the 14th Century. In 2011, this castle was turned into a museum telling the history of the Canary Islands. For years it was a fort that defended against countless pirate and privateer invasions.
Church and Los Leones Plaza: The Villa de Teguise Church is one of the most important ecclesiastical sites on the island. It is located by the Los Leones Plaza, which is a spectacular space right in the centre of town. It is a symbol to strengthen the cultural and religious heritage of Teguise, as it was the island’s first capital before being changed to Arrecife.
