Strolling through the village, an encounter with the living history of Lanzarote

The Real Villa de Teguise is the historic centre of the municipality and has been declared a historic-artistic architectural site. Considered one of the best preserved centres in the Canary Islands, its appearance has hardly changed since the 19th century. The loss of the island's capital status in 1852 and the economic crisis that followed slowed down urban development, which, paradoxically, allowed it to preserve its authenticity.
