A cultural project by Fundación Banco Santander

Faro Santander is Fundación Banco Santander’s cultural project, where art, culture and technology come together. It is located in the Pereda Building, the former headquarters of Banco Santander and one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. This historic building is now being brought back to life with the ambition of becoming an innovative, inclusive cultural space, closely connected to society and to Cantabria’s cultural community.

The architectural design of the centre has been entrusted to British architect David Chipperfield, winner of the 2023 Pritzker Prize. The opening of Faro Santander will mark a new milestone for the city, offering a dynamic, inspiring and engaging place where everyone is welcome.

Faro Santander will open its doors on 8 September. Visit the website for more information on opening hours, exhibitions and activities. And don’t forget to sign up for the newsletter so you don’t miss a thing!
