Errigoiti
Tourism destinations
Towns
Errigoiti is located in the historical territory of Bizkaia, within the Busturialdea region and close to Gernika-Lumo. Errigoiti, a mainly rural municipality, has a wide historical heritage. We should emphasize its beautiful parish church of Santa María de Idoibaltzaga, located in Eleizalde neighbourhood and built again in 1550. Nearby we will find the Calvary consecrated to saints San Antonio Abad and San Antonio de Padua. Thus, the church, the Calvary and the nearby houses form an unparalleled compound.
In contact with nature
Likewise, we should mention the hermitages of San Antonio, Santa Cruz and San Lorenzo. Meadows and trees surround the latter, located in the Metxikas neighbourhood, where we can fully enjoy the landscape of Errigoiti.
Due to the many neighbourhoods and hermitages in Errigoiti several festivals take place all through the municipality. Apart from the festival of San Isidro Labrador, on May 15th, Eleizalde holds San Antonio de Padua's day in mid June.
