The building called
the "Palace of the Sea", and known popularly as the " Aquarium",
was designed by the architect Juan Carlos Guerra. It was inaugurated
in 1928 and is the headquarters of the Oceanographic Society
of Gipuzkoa. The new extension, which tripled the amount of
exhibition space previously available, was opened to the public
in 1998. This new facility is one of the most advanced in
Europe and is the only Aquarium equipped with an underwater
tunnel that allows 360° viewing.
