Un lugar con auténticas reliquias históricas, muy bonito y interesante, disfruté mucho.

Estupendo. Super completo y sobre todo muy dinámico, de fácil lectura y consumo. Ni hablar de la historia de la cultura euskera. Dato: los viernes la entrada es gratuita

Une très bonne surprise...un très petit musée mais instructif...je recommande vivement
