Zalduondo was an important step on the Camino de Santiago in the Middle Ages. Its strategic location between the Llanada Alavesa and Guipúzcoa benefited it and it had great strength. Examples of that period are the Lazarraga palace and the church of San Saturnino in Tolosa.

I went in July 2023. This cave is completely closed. There are signs from the Basque government saying DO NOT ENTER (and explaining the consequences and the work they're doing) and plastic tape blocking the entrance. There are lots of constructions tools around too. Don't expect to get in unless you're willing to destroy the small stone wall and all the tape blocking the entrance.
