Good to know about Bilbao

Diego López de Haro granted Bilbao its town charter on 15 June 1300, but settlements already existed on both banks of the estuary. The charter therefore established a privileged municipality rather than creating a settlement from nothing. María Díaz de Haro subsequently confirmed and expanded the young town's commercial privileges.

Bilbao-born composer Juan Crisóstomo de Arriaga became known as the Spanish Mozart because of his precocious talent. He composed his first opera at thirteen and died before his twentieth birthday. Bilbao's Arriaga Theatre commemorates him, linking the city's historic stage with a remarkably short musical career.

The Fuente del Perro, or Dog Fountain, has three lion-headed spouts. Local stories explain the mismatch in different ways: one claims residents mistook unfamiliar lions for dogs; another attributes the name to a neighbour's badly executed lion sculpture. These are competing naming legends, not established accounts of the fountain's origin.

Marijaia, the raised-armed female figure created by Mari Puri Herrero in 1978, presides over Bilbao's Aste Nagusia festivities. Her arrival opens nine days of celebrations, while the burning of her effigy marks their conclusion. The central festival character is therefore deliberately destroyed rather than preserved from one celebration to the next.
