Irugurutzeta Furnaces

Highlight • Monument

The Irugurutzeta ovens constitute the largest battery of ovens in Gipuzkoa and one of the most important in the Basque Country.

After being calcined, the iron ores were loaded onto the wagons and from there they left for the Kostorbe station in the Irun neighborhood of Mendibil. From there, they were transported to Hendaye (for subsequent export to other areas of France, such as Bayonne or the Landes, and even to other countries such as Belgium, Germany or England), and to the ports of Pasaia, Bilbao... Their destination was the Blast Furnaces.

It connects the Hornos with the lower part of the Aitzondo waterfall, steep but short, a railing created with pikes and cables helps a lot to go up or down it.

Tunnels of the Old Meazuri Mines

Highlight • Structure

These types of tunnels are those of the old mining train route, since, due to the difficult orography, they had to be excavated to avoid the slopes of the mountain.
