About this experience

Churches in Órzola is a self-guided walking tour of the two historic Catholic churches in the fishing village of Órzola, on the northern tip of Lanzarote. The route covers the 18th-century Ermita de Nuestra Señora de los Dolores and the modern Parroquia de San Juan Bautista, both within 300 metres of the harbour. Visitors see whitewashed facades, wooden altars, and local religious art without entering restricted areas.
