Zurbano
Zurbano is a village for comparing noble-house façades near Vitoria-Gasteiz. Heraldic shields, towers and a church doorway reward an exterior walk without relying on palace interiors.

The houses show how noble residences became more comfortable while retaining visible signs of family standing. Several façades invite direct comparison: a shield at Ortiz de Zárate, a gallery at Otazu and paired towers on other palaces give the village more variety than a single mansion stop.
What to look for
The Ortiz de Zárate house bears a heraldic shield.
Otazu has an attached pavilion with a four-arch gallery.
San Esteban church preserves a fifteenth-century pointed doorway.
Useful to know
Plan an exterior village walk; palace heritage status does not establish public admission.
Compare Ortiz de Zurbano and Otálora-Guevara for their paired square towers.
