Did you know that... Ilarratz

It belongs to the municipality of Esteríbar, under Mount Measkoiz, on the left bank of the river Arga. In 1427 it seems to form a single council with Ezquíroz; its neighbours were all noblemen, therefore free of lordly burdens. Until the municipal reforms of 1835-1845, it had as its own authority a councillor who was chosen in turn among the houses, apart from the common authorities of the Esteríbar valley.
