    San Sebastian, La Gomera

    San Sebastian

    San Sebastian is the little capital of one of the least-known and least-developed Canaries.

    San Sebastián de La Gomera is also known as “Isla Colombina” for its historic links to Christopher Columbus. Legend has it that he stopped here on his way to America and throughout the town there are buildings linked to him. The Casa de la Agunada has an interesting exhibition on La Gomera and the discovery of America by Europeans and the Casa de Colon – where he is supposed to have stayed – has more Columbus artefacts, including a collection of ceramics.
     The most famous building in the town is the perfectly preserved Torre del Conde, a military tower built in 1447, while the oldest church is Ermita de San Sebastian, parts of which date back to 1540. San Sebastian is a lively town with some excellent festivals throughout the year, from the Fiesta de San Sebastian in January to Fiestas Columbinas which lasts over a week during September.
