Eglise Saint Nicolas

Rue de l'Eglise, 64210 Guéthary

On entering the church, a 16th-century building, one’s gaze is immediately drawn to the galleries, built over three storeys in 1636, and to the impressive beams that support them. The organ was built in 1959 on the site of the former ‘astotegia’, a space once reserved for the village’s dignitaries. Looking up at the ceiling, we see a ship depicted as a votive offering, as is common in most seaside churches. The chancel was refurbished in 1970 to adapt it to the new liturgy introduced by the Second Vatican Council.
