Vitoria-Gasteiz

Plaza de la Virgen Blanca

plaza de la virgen blanca 1

This is one of the favourite meeting places for all the inhabitants of the city and the setting for a large number of events, the most important of which, without doubt, is the descent of “Celedón”, marking the start of the festivals of the city’s patron saint, the Virgen Blanca.

The square is presided over by the church of San Miguel with a niche containing a statue of the patron saint of the city.
