These include a number of elegant wood houses and the town's main church, Iglesia Nuestra Señora de la Asuncion . Townspeople try to link many of these buildings with the visit of Christopher Columbus. In fact links are at best circumstantial, and in any case most old buildings in San Sebastian have been destroyed and rebuilt several times following the repeated sackings of the town by pirates. Even so, a wander around the old streets gives an insight into the town's history and probably won't take much more than an hour. A stroll along the promenade overlooking San Sebastian's main beach leads to the harbour and a headland, around which is the town's second, more secluded beach.
