Cultural Heritage

The fort of Guadalupe is one of the most beautiful in Hondarribia.

Its strategic location required a strong fortification for the village, and not only in the old part because the wall extends, in the form of multiple forts, to the whole village. The fortýs construction began in 1890 and opened 10 years later. It was used as a prison during the Civil War and as a military barracks till the end of the eighties.

Nowadays, guided visits are organized at the weeekends in summer time.
