Casa de Colón

Casa de Colón is a charming little museum nestled in the heart of San Sebastián de La Gomera, right on the historic Calle Real. This two-story Canarian colonial building recreates the space where, according to tradition, Christopher Columbus stayed during his legendary stopover on the island before setting sail for America. While historians debate its direct connection to the explorer, the place certainly preserves that legendary aura surrounding the discovery of the New World.

With free admission and open weekday mornings, Casa de Colón also functions as a cultural venue hosting temporary art and sculpture exhibitions. Its carefully restored traditional Canarian architecture gives visitors a glimpse into what colonial-era homes looked like. It's a perfect stop for those strolling through San Sebastián's old town who want to dive into La Gomera's maritime history while enjoying a peaceful corner filled with Atlantic memories.
