Christopher Columbus (1451–1506) is generally considered to be a great explorer during the Age of Exploration. Specifically, he is credited with being the first European explorer since the Vikings to explore the New World for Europeans. He made four famous voyages to the New World between 1492 and 1504, which have proved to be some of the most important events in all of world history.​
Christopher Columbus’ arrival in the New World in 1492 has been celebrated throughout history and across both the Americas and in Spain. For example, in the United States, Columbus Day occurs every year on the second Monday of October, to roughly correspond with Columbus’ arrival on his first voyage.
