Strolling around the cobbled streets of Vegueta, where the twin towers of Catedral de Santa Ana dominate the skyline, feels like stepping back in time, for you're walking in the footsteps of Christopher Columbus. Visit the Ermita de San Antonio hermitage, where a kneeling Columbus prayed prior to setting sail.

In the late 1800s, a passionate collector Fritz Mayer van den Bergh amassed an amazing art collection. He purchased paintings by Peter Brueghel for a pittance, and managed to beat major museums purchasing stunning medieval sculptures. Mayer van den Bergh had an eye for the best quality in almost every genre. After his death, his mother finally managed to make her son’s dream come true: she built a museum, which showcased his collection. Today, the museum stands largely uncharged: it is still a museum of one man... and his mother. Highly recommended in the Great smaller museums of Europe.
