San Vicente Church is unfinished
Although the San Vicente church was built in the 16th century, they have never stopped adding things to make it more beautiful, like with the stained glass windows from 1921 (built to enlighten the inside).
It is usually one of the key points of our Free Tours in San Sebastian. But St Vincent’s church is still unfinished!
If we pay attention to the wall that goes along 31st of August S there is an unfinished wall. It is a baptistery that was never built, from which you can see some stones leaving the wall. They are called koxkas. If you go inside the church you can see a model of how the church was planned but never done.
