2. Agurain (Araba) Located in the historical territory of Alava, Salvatierra/Agurain belongs to the homonym municipality. It is placed between the Entzia and Iturrieta mountain ranges. It is formed by five towns among which Salvatierra/Agurain stands out, as it is the administrative capital of the area and has a medieval old part surrounded by a wall. It was declared Historic Monument in 1975. The old part is divided in three main streets: Zapatari, Carnicería and Mayor. The latest is home to the churches of Santa María and San Juan Bautista, both with altarpieces from the 16th century. The pilgrim route of Saint James passes through the municipality. The landscape offers many routes, both trekking and mountain bike routes. It's worth visiting some of the megalithic monuments in the surroundings: the dolmen of Sorginetxe in Arrizala, the cromlech of Mendiluze and the menhir of Itaida, situated in the Entzia range. Those remains are near the Opakua mountain pass and are very well preserved.

4. Aniturri BHI: Its History Aniturri opened its doors in 1980. At that time, there were two buildings separated by 1 km: one building was called “the Monks” and the second one was in the Moncloa neighbourhood. Only some subjects were taught in the Monks. Students had to move from one building to the other to study other subjects. Now, there is only one building: Aniturri. The Secondary School has this name because there is a stream near the school called Aniturri. In 1990, fashion & design and engineering were taught at Aniturri when it was also a vocational training school. Some years later, the Basque Government centralized the vocational training courses in Gasteiz. That’s how Aniturri became just a (Post-)Secondary School
