San Cristóbal de la Laguna print, TENERIFE
Art print. San Cristóbal de la Laguna in Tenerife
The city was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1999 for being a unique example of an unfortified colonial city. It is home to the Canary Islands Advisory Council, the Canary Islands Institute of Astrophysics, the Diocese of Tenerife, Tenerife North Airport, and the University Hospital of the Canary Islands.
Furthermore, the city is also home to the first university founded in the Canary Islands, and the first and oldest active institute in the archipelago, which is why La Laguna was historically considered the intellectual center of the Canary Islands.
It was the headquarters of the Captaincy General of the Canary Islands (1656-1723), and until 18338 it was the de facto capital of the Canary archipelago.
