The Aiete Palace compound connects the district's formerly rural character with Spain's dictatorship and its later remembrance. Franco used the palace as a summer residence after the city council acquired it in 1940. Its association with Bakearen Etxea, the Peace Memorial House, gives this area a different focus from a general neighborhood stroll.
What to look for
Aiete Palace is the district's named historic anchor.
Bakearen Etxea connects the palace compound with the theme of peace.
