Facts and practical information

The Ermita de San Cristóbal is a hermitage located in the city of San Cristóbal de La Laguna on the island of Tenerife. It is located next to the square of the same name.

In it is venerated the small and primitive image of San Cristóbal de Licia, patron saint of the city of San Cristóbal de La Laguna and titular of the Diocese of San Cristóbal de La Laguna. Although, the main image of this Saint is in the cathedral of the city.

It is believed that in this chapel are the remains of Fernando Guanarteme, aboriginal king of Gáldar who participated in the conquest of Tenerife. However, excavations have been carried out on the site and his remains have not been found.
