Bilbao is a city that, despite the wars that marked the beginning of the 19th century, continued to develop. From 1875 onwards, an unprecedented period of economic boom began, driven by mining, trade, and port activities. Simultaneously, the steel industry gained strength, and shipbuilding became the main engine of economic growth in the region.
However, all this progress came to an end—and a price to pay. Around 1970, the mines began to run out, triggering a profound economic crisis. What at first seemed like a monumental tragedy, capable of destroying everything in its path, ended up opening the way for an unprecedented transformation in the city's history. This forced change led Bilbao to reinvent itself, giving rise to the vibrant and characterful tourist city we know today.
Come explore Bilbao and discover how this resilient city has transformed challenges into opportunities, becoming a remarkable tourist destination steeped in history.
