The history of the town can be traced to the Paleolithic era. Findings in caves at Bolinkoba, Arenaza, Atexa, Santimamine, and Lumentxa have all proven that settlements existed here during that age. More settlements have been found dating from the Iron Age, including those at Arrola, Malmasin, and Bolumburu. Some of the most popular sites with tourists are the Roman settlements. Forua is popular in particular because of all the Roman remains that you can still see today. Also see the Puerta de San Juan, the Tree of Guernica, and the Casa de Juntas de Avellaneda.
