Etxetxu branka

This building, popularly known as Etxetxu, was built in 1612 and is the oldest in Puerto Viejo, even older than the port itself, which was built in 1629, seventeen years later. This unique house that presides over the entrance to the upper part of the neighborhood was also the Getxo Town Hall for 22 years (from 1838 to 1860), headquarters of the Fishermen's Brotherhood and the Lemanes Sailors Piloting School. It has even been the scene of several films, the most famous being “Un poco de Chocolate” (A Little Chocolate). As a more recent event, on Saturday, August 12, 1972, in the middle of the Puerto Viejo de Algorta festivities, it is on the ground floor of this historic building, where the popular Kalimotxo drink was baptized. and we currently offer two tourist apartments in this emblematic enclave Registration Details Spain - National registration number Exempt Basque Country - Regional registration number TBI00057
