See one of the few known handwritten copies of Friar Juan de Abreu Galindo’s account of the conquest of the Canary Islands. The La Laguna chronicler Juan Núñez de la Peña copied it by hand in the seventeenth century. The exhibition shows how conservators restored the fragile manuscript, step by step. Visit Centro de Documentación de Canarias y América (CEDOCAM) on Mondays and Wednesdays to Fridays from 08:00 to 15:00, and on Tuesdays from 10:00 to 17:00 until 27 January 2027. Admission is free and capacity is limited.

On Depronto, you can mark “Going”, see a summary of the group and chat with others before the event.
