A new cultural beacon to light up Santander

Santander has a new cultural space called Faro Santander, which has opened in the former Banco Santander building on Paseo de Pereda. The centre, developed by architect David Chipperfield, spans over 10,000 square meters, with nearly 3,000 dedicated to exhibitions. Faro Santander is the Fundación Banco Santander's latest cultural venture and aims to become a major cultural hub in Santander, joining other nearby institutions such as the Centro Botín, the future Mupac, and the Archivo Lafuente.
