Neoclassical square in the heart of Bilbao's Old Town (Casco Viejo). • The square was laid out in 1821 and completed in 1851. • It is surrounded by arcades and columns, beneath which are numerous pintxos bars and restaurants. • Plaza Nueva is a popular meeting place and considered the heart of the old town. • A flea market takes place in the square on Sundays.

It was inaugurated in 1939 and honors Evaristo de Churruca, a Spanish naval officer and engineer known for his contributions to the canalization of the Nervión River. The monument consists of an Art Deco-style obelisk with bronze statues symbolizing man's struggle against the sea.

A roundabout to relax and all around is car traffic.

The Churruca Pier or Evaristo de Churruca Pier is a pier in the Biscayan town of Las Arenas (Getxo). Designed and built by the Spanish engineer Evaristo de Churruca y Brunet, it is located at the end of the Nervión estuary and is named after him, as is its counterpart, the Churruca Pier in Portugalete, located on the opposite bank of the estuary. The Churruca Pier extends along the right bank of the Nervión mouth, from the Vizcaya Bridge onward. It is divided into two parts: The first serves as a street, extending from the Vizcaya Bridge to the landscaped area known as Churruca Park, which includes several tamarind gardens and connects to the Las Arenas Pier and Las Arenas Beach. This first part consists of a promenade parallel to the estuary, a small garden separating it from a one-way road, and a sidewalk on the other side of the road, which provides access to the homes. The second part consists of a landscaped promenade and extends beyond the beach. This is the pier itself, the structure built by Evaristo de Churruca, which allowed the channeling of the Nervión River. It consists of two pedestrian walkways, separated by several garden areas, which connect at a small plaza at the end, where a small lighthouse stands. At the beginning of the pier is the monument to Evaristo de Churruca, a huge obelisk depicting man struggling with and conquering the sea (represented by Neptune, the Roman god, in a position of defeat). This image symbolizes man's struggle against the sea.

Nice place to linger for a while

To the right of the bridge leading to the new city of Bilbao, you will find the church of San Nicolas. In the 14th century, there was already a church on this site, but in 1756 it had to be completely rebuilt. The baroque church was designed by architect Ignacio de Ibero and was dedicated to Saint Nicholas, patron saint of sailors. The showpiece of the octagonal interior is the beautifully carved altar.

Like all the bridges over the Bilbao estuary, the current Arenal Bridge dates from after the Spanish Civil War. During the conflict, they were all destroyed in defense of the city. However, the current design is a reflection and copy of the previous design and together they encompass more than 175 years of history of the city of Bilbao. It is also one of the best known, most beloved and most used routes by the people of Bilbao on a daily basis.

Beautiful park with fountains, playground and a kiosk with many benches that are also used a lot.
