GIPUZKOAN EXPERIENCE ESSENCES OF EUSKAL HERRIA

The Igartubeiti Farmhouse Museum allows us to get closer to the history of the Basque farmhouse. The farmhouse brings together a set of cultural, historical, anthropological, architectural and symbolic values that make it a key element of the Basque heritage, which we must preserve.

Igartubeiti was built in the mid-16th century and is a magnificent representative of the Golden Age of the Basque farmhouse. The Igartubeiti house reached its peak in the early seventeenth century, at which time it was expanded and underwent a major transformation to adapt to new ways of life and work. Its original wooden structure, excellently preserved, and the existence inside a large cider press make it one of the most interesting farmhouses in the Basque Country.

In Ordizia, we will get to know in depth a product as ours as Idiazabal cheese and of course we will see the close relationship of Idiazabal Cheese with the Ordizia market that has been held every Wednesday since 1512. The visit will end with a tasting of two types Idiazabal cheese (white and smoked) accompanied by water or wine or txakoli.

Lunch in Tolosa and in the afternoon we will visit a special place, such as the Puppet Museum. We are going to a world of animated objects, poetry, fictional stories, games, humor, emotions, and theater, but also a material world, a world of art and crafts. A universe of imagination.
