Telde is a municipality in the eastern part of the island of Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, overseas (Atlantic) insular Spain. It borders Las Palmas to the north and is part of its urban area. It is historically known as the "City of the Faycanes" (ancient aboriginal high priests).
It is the second most populous municipality on the island of Gran Canaria. Its area is 102.43 km2 (39.55 sq mi). Telde is the oldest city on the island and served as its first capital. Originally established as an ancient aboriginal center, it became a medieval bishopric via papal decree in 1351, was officially re-founded under Spanish colonial rule in 1483, and survives today as a Catholic titular see. The GC-1 motorway passes east of the city. Gran Canaria International Airport is located in the subdivision of Gando, south of Telde.
