Villages

Aulesti
Discover a village with seven medieval quarters, a church with historic bells and a riverside park ideal for relaxing and enjoying with the family.
Although today the official name is Aulesti, at the time of the creation of the antechurch it was called Murelaga. Aulesti was the name of the street around the church, known as puebla, and so it was given that name. It is made up of seven neighbourhoods, each of which has a chapel from the Middle Ages.
The square is situated in the middle of the village, next to the road, where the church is located. It is made up of 6 large pillars made of limestone from the Oiz mountain and has 5 bells. One of them is called the bell of Bethlehem and dates from 1626. This bell was rung on stormy days, when casting spells. It also had a task: if a woman was in labour, the bell was rung so that she would have a good time and the child would be healthy.
Relaxation area: The river park
If we go along the road that leads to the Urriola neighbourhood, next to the fronton, we will reach a park on the banks of the river Lea. Taking advantage of the Lea river, the dam has become an ideal area for bathing, sunbathing, playing football, enjoying the picnic area... Ideal for the whole family.
