Monuments

Located on the Itzurun beach over a cliff shaped by the Flysch, this small hermitage is dedicated to the patron saint of sailors.

Probably of Templar origin, it was renovated in the 16th-century and rebuilt in the 18th-century. It preserves the font which was used to baptise San Ignacio.

It was in the 16th-century when a central body with a square courtyard in typical renaissance style were added to the old tower of the house of Ubillos family. In addition to the right tower, a big entrance and balconies were also added thus it lost the defensive and military look it had in the past.

Since it was founded in the 14th-century, Zestoa was surrounded by walls. Today we can see one of the original gates that served as entry to the town called San José (earlier know as Arretxea) and a second rebuilt gate called Inmaculada.

The house of Zumaia-Ganboa family was built in the 15th-century. This family was the leader amongst the towns richest people and was one of the 24 Older Relatives of Gipuzkoa.
