The Ormaiztegi Viaduct (inaugurated on August 15, 1864) is the town's most emblematic symbol. Designed by engineer Alexander Lavalley, a predecessor of Gustave Eiffel, it stands in a beautiful landscape overlooking the Eztanda River. It is the most important structure on the Madrid-Paris railway line, spanning 289 meters in length and 34 meters in height. Its 18,000 tons are supported by four pillars. The double track was installed in 1912 and electrified in 1928. It is currently disused and forms part of the Basque Country's cultural heritage.

The Church of San Miguel is a Gothic-style religious building that immediately strikes with its grandeur and monumentality. It is located very close to the university building, making both buildings easily accessible. It is recommended to book a guided tour at the nearby tourist office. It costs €6 per person and includes a tour of the university and this church. The Church of San Miguel Arcángel is the most important religious monument in Oñate, a magnificent temple well worth exploring.

The Plaza de los Fueros is a large rectangular pedestrian street that forms the center of the city and features several good taverns and restaurants with terraces under the arcades. Designed in the mid-19th century, it is a colonnaded square, enclosed on three sides, opening onto a small garden area, behind which is a large esplanade used for a street market on Saturdays. In this square of simple neoclassical buildings, the Town Hall building is particularly striking for its lavish and exuberant decoration.

The Town Hall building towers over Plaza de los Fueros. It is a Baroque building, built in 1758 by the Basque architect Martín de Carrera. The main façade features a portico with three large semicircular arches, above which opens a large lattice balcony with richly decorated, molded windows crowned by split pediments. The main façade is crowned by five pinnacles with an iron cross in the center.

Beautiful town nestled in the Guipuzcoan valley of Alto Urola. The name of the town comes from Basque and means 'place of the elm'. The Urola River runs through the town and separates it from the municipality of Urretxu. Zumárraga is also the end point of the Urola greenway, a cycle route that runs through a beautiful rural landscape. A destination with a lot of charm and personality.
