Elemento imprescindible y excepcional de nuestro entorno, ha visto innumerables regatas, ha servido Throughout its history, the Bridge has been closely linked to both social and cultural landmarks in the region.
Since it first opened in 1893 the Biscay Transporter has been witness, target and setting for a number of cultural activities.
It has witnessed hundreds of boar races, hosted a circus and even performed the duties of an ad-hoc church, as well as being the starting point of numerous sea journeys that have circumnavigated the globe. Part of the cast in various films and frame to acrobats, it has also hosted celebrations and protests, as well as inspiring painters and writers. And last but not least, it still performs its duties as a humble river crossing.
For more than a century it held the title of monument of Biscay, an honour it now shares with the Guggenheim Museum, one of whose main benefactors is the Biscay Transporter Bridge Society. El Transbordador de Bizkaia.
