About Irun
Sitting on the banks of the Bidasoa River in the Basque region of Spain, Irun is a town in the Bidasoaldea region with its foundations on the ruins of the ancient city of Oiasso, a Roman-Vasconic town in ancient times. It's actually located on the border between Spain and France making it a commercial and logistic center. It faces the French city of Hendaia and makes for a quick change of country, if you are so inclined.
Another city for the history buff or those who just like to meander where ancient feet have trodden, Irun is home to the hermitage of Santa Elena, which was built on top of a Roman necropolis and temple. There is a museum to dawdle around when you don't feel like taking up space in a coworking venue and the church of Santa Maria del Juncal from the 16th Century for when you need to say a prayer for your successful startup or maybe beg for some help with your new idea. Irun has an overflowing calendar of cultural and sporting activities to take part in, from horseback riding to hang gliding and even canoeing for those into dipping their toes in the water.
Irun is no different to other towns in Spain, in that its innovative locals are no longer chasing their dreams overseas, but are staying put to get innovative and creative. Hence the rise in coworking spaces where creatives can network and get involved with a likeminded community.
