The Edificio Banco de Santander is a historic building located on Paseo Pereda in Santander, Spain. Designed by architect Javier González de Riancho, the building was originally conceptualized between 1919 and 1923. It features a prominent maritime-facing façade adorned with sculptures representing the arts, culture, and commerce. The site is recognized as a cultural heritage asset and has undergone significant renovations over the years. Visitors can enjoy the architecture and learn about the bank's rich history. A recent transformation project aims to convert the building into a public space housing the Banco Santander Foundation's extensive art collection.
